The ferrarichat.com thread makes interesting reading. I concur with the gent on the forum who suggested that as the Can-Am P4 is currently exactly how it left the factory in 1967, it should remain in that configuration!

“Nonetheless, it is a shame that the factory converted some endurance P4s for the Can-Am series. I wonder if the next owner will be tempted to return the Can-Am car back to its original endurance configuration?”

For a lively discussion on this topic (342 posts last I looked), go to the Vintage section of Ferrarichat.com and follow the “0858 to be auctioned” thread…

Thanks! Well, almost right I guess. Jackie Stewart’s one and only drive in a Ferrari P4 was indeed at Brands Hatch for the 1967 BOAC 500 – but obviously not in the chassis mentioned in the above report or my comments. Nonetheless, it is a shame that the factory converted some endurance P4s for the Can-Am series. I wonder if the next owner will be tempted to return the Can-Am car back to its original endurance configuration? By the way, Anthony Pritchard’s Scarlet Passion book has some excellent photos of P4s racing in the 1967 Can-Am series!

Excellent report and photos. However, the converted Can-Am Ferrari 330 P4 mentioned was only ever driven by Jackie Stewart at the 1967 BOAC 500 held at Brands Hatch. He co-drove the car (in its original Spyder configuration) with Chris Amon to a second place finish behind the winning Phil Hill/Mike Spence driven Chaparral 2F.
