    Hi Matthias,

    I appreciate the response. I have never seen a literature dealer list one of these in their inventory so very helpful.

    I do not think it is from the US. Besides the imperial gallons, it mentions "Left-hand drive", something that would never appear in a US sales brochure. Also, both the picture and the description refers to an L-series Dino, which was never sold or marketed in the US.
    Most likely, it was produced in one of the Commonwealth countries.

    I've had a few of these and I live in the United States. It is not a brochure made by Ferrari. Ferrari started to number their publications in 1965. The first numbered publication was 01/65 which is an owners manual for a 275. The first known 246 GT was S/N 00400 manufactured in March of 1969. I believe this sheet was made prior to 1969 since the photo is of a 206 GT. I am not aware of any 246 GT's made with an exposed filler cap.

    Denny Shue noted on his dinoregister website that In 1967 the 5Th 206 GT prototype was made and it was said to have been shown at the Paris Auto Show, maybe in 1968. Used for numerous press release photographs. There are virtually no identifying features on this Dino, and it appears identical to normal early production versions, except "Farina" badges on both sides, the wiper arms and blades were silver in color, and lack of vent windows. Coachwork by Pininfarina. I believe the Ferrari 246 GT sales brochure number 29/69 shows the 1967 5th 206 GT prototype. I believe this brochure was made prior to 1969.

    This is a photo of 29/69 Dino 246 GT sales brochure showing "Farina" side badge on a 206 GT.
