Tom Talks: Ferrari 250 GTO

www.tomhartley...

[@arttafil6792]

Thank you for the like on my 250 GTO comment. My first exposure to the GTO’s was in 1964. One of my father’s good friends had purchased one and he took me along up to the dells area of Wisconsin. My greatest memory of that day was having the side window down and listening to the symphonic melody of the exhaust notes. That magnificent 12 cylinder engine with those six deuces sucking air and the melodious sound of the exhaust bouncing off of the rock walls on either side of the car still raises goosebumps the size of golf balls on my arms every time I relive that memory. I was 16 at the time and that created a hooked for life Ferrari maniac! As for my comment about God owning a 250 GTO, I call them like I see them. :) :) :)

[@stankygeorge]

I'm envious, I got to ride around in old beat up Fords or Mercury's! Not bad cars but no Ferrari's!

[@ericanderson2987]

❤ what an incredible Story to actually See AND Ride in probably THE iconic Car of our Time!

[@ElmarDertnig]

For me, the most beautiful car ever!!

[@charleschapman3994]

After the Jaguar E-Type (as per Enzo himself). I have owned 3 XKEs and 1 Fauxrrari 250 GTO replica.

[@zenzombie72]

For me, Ferrari 275 GTS, in red.

[@alexyoro7066]

What about 330p4

[@ElmarDertnig]

@@alexyoro7066 the 330p4 has a total sport approach. The 250GTO design combined with the spoke wheels creates timeless elegance

[@alexyoro7066]

@@ElmarDertnig yeah sur ... The same ADN ... The only dif is that the 330 p4 is radical comparing to the 250 gto

[@stankygeorge]

Few cars have been done correctly, the Ferrari 250 GTO and Dino are two examples that were! Both are gorgeous, charming and classic, to think, the 250 GTO was created in 1962 and the Dino a few years later, and today they are still magnificent. Yours, was a very well presented history lesson on this particular example! Thank you

[@Banditmanuk]

A gorgeous class car & great presentation on its history. 👍

[@yanyan9153]

You would never guess (given how eloquent, humble, discreet and classy Tom Hartley Junior is) who his father and brother are.

[@minatormyth]

Got to say I agree. Seems like a great guy.

[@alrightdave6135]

Yes, Carl seems very brash

[@thetruthwillout9094]

I haven't got a scooby mate. Who are they?

[@robertblanchard6196]

I'm guessing his father is tomorrow Hartley bye the jr after his name!

[@daveybaby10]

I wouldn’t say there brash again all,I’d say all the family seem confident just in different ways that’s all....I know a few people who’ve dealt with all of the family and say that they all are the nicest most polite respectful people ever who are funny and extremely knowledgeable

[@jonathanrath3036]

Very nicely done. Such a beautiful machine.

[@wdrdiyman1674]

Wait a minute....you're sitting on the rear spoiler of a car which you have sold for multiple millions of dollars ?? I certainly hope that the new owner never sees this video. BTW, great presentation, videography and history.

[@rabbishekelstein9477]

This need more views, and yourself more subs! Thanks for the history on this beautiful prancing horse

[@stankygeorge]

When people think Ferrari, they think 250 GTO!

[@BarrieCrampton]

Great to be given the chance to view and hear about the history of this beautiful car, look forward to more of your videos

[@arttafil6792]

This IS the pinnacle of automotive perfection and beautiful form.

What a beautiful car... cant stop re watching it.... thanks Tom 🙏

Saw this car on the CO1000 this past September. Simply stunning!

[@elmadi7391]

Thanks Tom for sharing.... such a history. Praying that I can see & hear a real one in the future. At the moment, I only have a CMC diecast model car

[@brunotulliani]

Beautiful story! Timeless design and truly a work of art!

[@steffydog]

Wow, a stunning car, beautifully presented, thanks THJ

[@Harryjones05]

That is one gorgeous car...!!! Great video as well👍🏻

[@stevefowler2112]

I just bought my first Ferrari...they have stirred my heart since I was a young boy. Mine is a 2019 488 GTS and I am completely smitten.

[@PP-uk4pv]

The most beautiful of all the 250 gto's!

[@craigyirush3492]

The world championship was also for GT cars in 1965, and Shelby won it with the Daytona coupes. They also beat the GTOs at Le Mans in ‘64, but lost the championship because Ferrari got the last race cancelled at Monza.

[@stankygeorge]

Sneaky Italians! That is what Mr. Ferrari gets for calling the The Deuce (Henry Ford Jr) and his representatives: "sons of whores"! Now, that was an insult heard around the world! By the way; Ford did it again 50 years later with the new Ford GT for a total of 19 wins, Ford was disqualified in 2019 after a victory for over size fuel tanks. Remember, this was done with a six cylinder truck engine! Ferrari has to be sweating bullets right about now because the Corvette C8 is on the loose!

[@steelcitysupercars9329]

This video is epic! PLEASE BRING THIS TO DREAM RIDE 2019

[@acskls]

Great video this really informative. Lovely motor car. I used to see this at Ferrari Owners Club track days at Oulton Park in the late 90's .

[@PaulMercer1962]

I used to see 6 GTO (#3527) a lot in the 1990s. A friend of mine used to race a 308GTB at the time. I was fortunate to have met Steve Pilkington at Donington Park in July 1991. He owned #3527 at the time. Steve took me round Donington in the car. He said that if I went to Oulton Park the following week, he would take me round there as well. How could I refuse? I have this on video so if you want to take a look, here are the links. Donington Park - kzbin.info/www/bejne/i3avZ6SCpZ2hrrc Oulton Park - kzbin.info/www/bejne/bqXdl6Kpf6aDsLM

[@acskls]

@@PaulMercer1962 Superb videos Paul. The sounds are amazing. I think it was 1995 + 96 + 97 + 98 I saw it at Oulton Park. I remember clouds of smoke coming out of the exhaust when he accelerated ! And the sounds obviously ! Thanks for sharing 👍. Andy.

[@PaulMercer1962]

@@acskls They were great times, Andy. Glad you enjoyed the videos. A friend of mine used to race a 308GTB in the Ferrari Challenge back in the day... and I used to help him out. That is how I ended up at those events. I have never owned a Ferrari myself but have always admired them. I was also lucky enough to have a ride in an F40. That was in 1992. (obviously the F40 is a faster car but the 250GTO is something really special). kzbin.info/www/bejne/oHbFhIGYebuEi7s

Two side slats? I thought that the GTO is supposed to have three slats, like the 1984 GTO.

[@IIIrandomIII]

Fuck I want this car so much seriously

[@johnblacksmith9505]

@06:47 What is clear, is that the owners of this car are only bothered about money. When the price to buy this car goes up they will then sell it. Its very sad and just shows how little people actually care about owing this car and are only interested in making profit from it.

I remember seeing privateer racer Ron Fry crashing his light green 250 GTO at North Tower Corner at Crystal Palace in 1963 (?), severely damaging the rear of the car. Even as a spotty kid I remember being horrified by the destruction of this gorgeous car. I often wonder what happened to it .....

[@stevenrobertson7643]

@Geoff Buck It was David Piper that crashed his green RHD 250 GTO chassis #3767GT at Crystal Palace on 2nd September, 1962, which has been owned by Lord Anthony Bamford since the early '70s. Ron Fry's RHD 250 GTO chassis #3869GT was red, now owned by Giorgio Perfetti.
