●Ferrari 512 BBLM – 1982 
Chassis #44023

Ferrari 512 BB LM completed in November 1982, chassis #44023, the 25th and final example produced of the series developed by Ferrari in collaboration with Michelotto for international endurance racing.

Ecurie Francorchamps Racing in preparation for the 1983 Le Mans Race. The car was built on Factory chassis # 44023 and the Scuderia installed Motor # 0034.
Unfortunately car never raced by Jacques Swaters Racing Team. In fact it was never raced in period competition and as a result appears in its original factory livery. A just out of the box 1982 racing machine. Instead, the car has spent almost its entire life in two museums until rescued by the Liebhaber Racing team in October of 1998. The car was obtained from Symbolic Motor Car Company in LaJolla California who had acquired the car from its the current owner, DeanBecker. Becker had acquired the car from Kato in Japan where it resided in the " Boxer Museum
" from 1989 to 1998. During that period the car was seen in two club races, driven by professional drivers, representing Kato. From 1985 to 1989 the car resided in the Ford Auto Museum in Dearborn Michigan and prior to that it remained in the possession of Jacques Swaters.
