The story all starts with the car, a 1954 Ferrari 375 Plus. The vehicle featured a 330 hp V12 engine, and it could achieve a top speed of 173 mph. Ferrari only constructed just five examples of the car for that year.
One of those 375's was sadly neglected and left for scraps after breaking down. This is where the first owner comes in, Karl Kleve. Karl found the rusting, burnt out chassis of the 375 in a lot one day and picked it up for $2,500 back in 1958 without realizing what he had on his hands. Since then it has become one of the most controversial cars around.
