The 410 Superamerica was first introduced in 1955. It was aimed at an elite clientele seeking maximum performance combined with uncompromising luxury. The Series III, introduced at the Paris Motor Show in October 1958, was the final evolution of this model, marking the pinnacle of the development of the Lampredi "long block" V12 engine in a road car. It was produced for a very short period, until June 1959, before being replaced by the 400 Superamerica.
The only 12 units produced were all built by Pinin Farina and sold to an extremely small and wealthy target, consisting of business magnates, celebrities and important collectors.
In the summer of 1960, sold it to Peter Van Gerbig. Van Gerbig immediately had the car air freighted back to the factory where he had Scaglietti replace the regular seats with a pair of special seats based on the 250 GT Short Wheelbase Berlinetta competition bucket seats. These seats were more comfortable for a man of Van Gerbig's height. The new seats were done in red leather and the rest of the interior was also redone in red at this time.
