Hello. For two years now I've been trying something I now think will never be possible. List all the 250s correctly. There is SO MUCH conflicting information out there (even from experts). So I've been hammering away for two years and have a good list but it could be better. Here is my list:

http://www.ferrariforum.net/models/comp ... asc&page=2

It continues to page 3. Now here is a list recently sent to me. I'm trying to match them up and again I'm getting conflicting data. I used the Mercatto section of Cavallino, The Ferrari Register by Dr. Marvin and a few other resources. Here is list 2 from a friend:

Andrew,

The photo used for 250 Europa is incorrect. The photo used is that of a 250 GT Europa (a special one at that). The PF Coupes come in two series, Series I with drum brakes and inside plug engines and Series II with disc brakes and outside plug engines. As to the numbers, I will have to look up.

Nice list!

John,

Thanks for the reply. I understand the 250 Europa and GT are different. I'm not sure how I ever got the "1st series" "2nd series" designation after them. So I was thinking I meant 1st series = Europa and 2nd series = Europa GT, but the production number do not match up.

Am I also correct in that "250 GT" alone is also the same as "250 GT TdF" (which is missing from my list).

Regards,
Andrew
