Sort of delivered...

It was an unofficial factory delivery but not really.

Process was rubber stamped by the factory to have Dick Fritz do the conversions with a wink and a nod from the factory. US dealers would arrange for the car to be "delivered" in Italy (recall my 412iA delivery factory story) so the car was not "new".

Drive the car out of the factory gate for 30 minutes to an hour and then take it back. Car is picked up by a truck and sent to a port. It wound up at Dick's shop where the conversion was done and the certification stamped by the EPA and DOT.

No warranty as I recall.

288 original production run was extended due to high theft rate inside Italy. About 25 percent stolen before they left the country is the story.

Your assumption that no 288 GTOs were officially delivered new to the US is completely erroneous.

I have a Ferrari 288 GTO that I am offering. They only made 272 of these cars, all street and none of them were shipped to USA from the factory. When I want to find information about a special I go to: http://www.barchetta.cc/All.Ferraris/ferrari.by.serial.number.summary/index.html
