It’s hard to mention a unique Ferrari without the name Pininfarina coming up. In 1970, the fabled coachmaker put forth a design study/concept car that we can still stare at in amazement even today. We’re sure the 1970 Geneva Motor Show was breathtaking in its own right, but there’s no doubt that the Modulo was the crown jewel of the show. According to legend, Ferrari (in direct competition with Porsche) created 25 iterations of the 512S in order to meet homologation rules. Surprisingly, Maranello did not end of selling nor racing all 25, leaving chassis number 1046 in Pinanfarina’s hands. The result, as you see here, is a timeless design that is simply stunning in its forward thinking and aesthetics. The 512S was never designed to be driven one inch, and it doesn’t have to move to for one to appreciate features like its covered wheels, sliding canopy roof, and 24-hole engine cover.
