Help ID this car

Buddy of mine is working on this. He sent me this in a text but didn't ID the car. Without asking him what it is, I want to respond "knowing" already what it is.

Yes, you’re right; 1962-63 Ferrari GT 2+2.
The brain trust never ceases to amaze; 5 minute results!
Thank you

I think that it's more likely a 63 Ferrari 330 America.
Notice the location of the secondary lights...

It's definitely a 63 model, and probably a 330 due to the flat hood, but maybe they made a few final 250's this way.
It was a transition year for the 2+2. We had a new 64 330 for several years.

And speaking of 330 Americas, socialite Sandra West was famously buried with hers in 1977.

Interesting. Only 38 years old when she died of a prescription medication overdose. Not too many miles on her...

Well that's weird but I've asked my eldest daughter to park my SC in front of the church at my funeral.

And to make sure it's in a position so that people have to walk past it to get inside the church.

Meanwhile is the F car in the OP a steel body? I thought these early cars were all aluminium.
