Ferrari 212 Export#212 MM

The Ferrari 212 Export was an evolution over the preceding 195 S in terms of engine capacity and new chassis. The 212 Export was a race model produced alongside a road-going version, the 212 Inter. The "Export" name first appeared on the 166 Export Vignale Spyder s/n 0072E, from the 166 MM range, and was adopted for the racing 212-series instead of the usual "Sport" moniker.{{cite web|url=http://www.barchetta.cc/english/All.Ferraris/Detail/0072E.166Export.htm|title=166 Export s/n 0072E|website=barchetta.cc|access-date=12 November 2019}} Twenty-seven 212 Exports were built, most of them used in competition.

Most bodies of the 212 Export range came from the Ferrari's chosen coachbuilder, Carrozzeria Touring.{{cite web|url=https://www.ultimatecarpage.com/car/3778/Ferrari-212-Export-Touring-Berlinetta.html|title=Ferrari 212 Export Touring Berlinetta|website=ultimatecarpage.com|access-date=12 November 2019}} Classic Touring Barchetta shape graced a total of eight cars, while another four received a closed berlinetta body style. One particular Touring Barchetta s/n 0102E was re-bodied by Carrozzeria Autodromo between 1953–1954, when it was acquired by Fox Studios in Hollywood, California, used in the 1955 movie "The Racers" with Kirk Douglas and Bella Darvi, directed by Henry Hathaway.{{cite web|url=http://www.barchetta.cc/english/All.Ferraris/Detail/0102E.212Export.htm|title=212 Export s/n 0102E|website=barchetta.cc|access-date=12 November 2019}} It was later raced in the 1954 Mille Miglia to gather footage for another movie, the 1961 "The Green Helmet" with Sid James and Bill Travers.

Carrozzeria Vignale created ten competition bodies in total. Three open-top spiders and seven closed Berlinetta to a Giovanni Michelotti design.{{cite web|url=http://www.archiviostoricomichelotti.it/elenco-vetture|title=Elenco delle Vetture progettate da Giovanni Michelotti conosciute al momento|language=it|website=archiviostoricomichelotti.it|access-date=12 November 2019}} Carrozzeria Motto bodied only a handful of Ferraris, including two examples of the 212 Export.{{cite web|url=https://www.ultimatecarpage.com/car/3777/Ferrari-212-Export-Motto-Spyder.html|title=Ferrari 212 Export Motto Spyder|website=ultimatecarpage.com|access-date=12 November 2019}} One spyder s/n 0094E and one berlinetta s/n 0074E were created to a Rocco Motto design.{{cite web|url=http://www.barchetta.cc/english/All.Ferraris/Detail/0074E.212Export.htm|title=212 Export s/n 0074E|website=barchetta.cc|access-date=12 November 2019}} The spyder featured triple headlights and was owned by an Italian racing driver Piero Scotti before ending up in Argentina.{{cite web|url=http://www.barchetta.cc/english/All.Ferraris/Detail/0094E.212Export.htm|title=212 Export s/n 0094E|website=barchetta.cc|access-date=12 November 2019}} There was a single Paolo Fontana creation in the form of a spyder, s/n 0086E.{{cite web|url=http://www.barchetta.cc/english/All.Ferraris/Detail/0086E.212Export.htm|title=212 Export s/n 0086E|website=barchetta.cc|access-date=12 November 2019}} The body was an open style described as a "carretto siciliano" or "Sicilian cart" with cycle-fenders. Scuderia Marzotto ordered a bare chassis from Ferrari and commissioned the coachwork to Carrozzeria Fontana from Padova. After the Giro di Sicilia, the first body was soon converted by Vignale into a regular spyder of their style. This, in turn, was re-bodied as a three-door station wagon by Fontana to serve as a support car in Carrera Panamericana. Before the 1952 Giro di Sicilia, 0086E received yet another spyder body, this time also by Fontana, with regular fenders but very narrow and inswept flanks.{{cite web|url=https://www.ultimatecarpage.com/car/3780/Ferrari-212-Export-Fontana-Spyder.html|title=Ferrari 212 Export Fontana Spyder|website=ultimatecarpage.com|access-date=12 November 2019}}

Some earlier cars from the 166 MM range were converted into the 212 specifications. One such example, s/n 024MB, was recreated after a serious accident in which the car was split into two parts.{{cite web|url=http://www.barchetta.cc/english/All.Ferraris/Detail/024MB.166MM.htm|title=166 MM s/n 024MB|website=barchetta.cc|access-date=12 November 2019}} In 1950, the recreated chassis received new bodywork designed by Franco Reggiani for Count Giannino Marzotto, executed by Carrozzeria Fontana and a year later, a new 2.6-litre engine from 212 Export s/n 0084E. Due to the unusual shape of the car, it was called "l'Uovo", which means "the egg". Because it raced with the 212-spec engine, its competition history and victories are counted towards the 212 Exports.{{cite web|url=https://rmsothebys.com/en/auctions/MO17/Monterey/lots/r101-1950-ferrari-166-mm212-export-uovo-by-fontana/416334|title=1950 Ferrari 166 MM/212 Export "Uovo" by Fontana|website=rmsothebys.com|access-date=12 November 2019}}

Not all 212 Exports were race cars. Vignale created further two convertibles as a strictly road-going car.{{cite web|url=https://www.ultimatecarpage.com/car/7065/Ferrari-212-Export-Vignale-Cabriolet.html|title=Ferrari 212 Export Vignale Cabriolet|website=ultimatecarpage.com|access-date=12 November 2019}} The first s/n 0106E, was owned by Count Sanseverino.{{cite web|url=http://www.barchetta.cc/english/All.Ferraris/Detail/0106E.212Export.htm|title=212 Export s/n 0106E|website=barchetta.cc|access-date=12 November 2019}} The second s/n 0110E was ordered by Jorge da Cunha d'Almeida Araujo, the Portuguese Ambassador in France.{{cite web|url=http://www.barchetta.cc/english/All.Ferraris/Detail/0110E.212Export.htm|title=212 Export s/n 0110E|website=barchetta.cc|access-date=12 November 2019}} One of the competition bodied spyders, s/n 0076E, presented as the Turin Motor Show car, was possibly at one time owned by Roberto Rossellini and has never raced.{{cite web|url=http://www.barchetta.cc/english/All.Ferraris/Detail/0076E.212Export.htm|title=212 Export s/n 0076E|website=barchetta.cc|access-date=20 January 2021}}{{cite web|url=https://www.velocetoday.com/news/news_29.php|title=Bits and piece|website=velocetoday.com|access-date=20 January 2021}} S/n 0098E was created as a Vignale Coupé and later re-bodied as an open-top spyder with additional headrest. This example also never saw racing.{{cite web|url=http://www.barchetta.cc/english/All.Ferraris/Detail/0098E.212Export.htm|title=212 Export s/n 0098E|website=barchetta.cc|access-date=12 November 2019}}

Some examples were further converted to 225-specification by upgrading to a 2.7 L engine. Cars with chassis numbers 0104E,{{cite web|url=http://www.barchetta.cc/english/All.Ferraris/Detail/0104ED.212Export.htm|title=212 Export s/n 0104ED|website=barchetta.cc|access-date=12 November 2019}} 0112E and 0158ED were some of them.{{cite web|url=http://www.barchetta.cc/english/All.Ferraris/Detail/0158ED.212E.htm|title=212 Export s/n 0158ED|website=barchetta.cc|access-date=12 November 2019}}

The 1951 Ferrari 212 MM was the first example of the series, that was later renamed as 212 Export.{{cite web|url=http://www.barchetta.cc/english/All.Ferraris/Detail/0070M.212MM.htm|title=212 MM s/n 0070M|website=barchetta.cc|access-date=12 November 2019}} S/n 0070M was bodied as a berlinetta by Vignale and owned by Franco Cornacchia of Scuderia Guastalla. It was the only Export to be named "Mille Miglia" by the factory and the only to sport an "M" in its chassis number suffix. The biggest difference over the succeeding examples of the series was the carburettors setup, made up of a triple four-barrel Webers. In April 1952, just before the Mille Miglia race, the car received an updated new bodywork, still in Vignale Berlinetta form, with a recessed grille and had portholes in fenders installed before Le Mans. The 212 MM was raced throughout 1955 up until the fatal accident of Giovanni Brinci during Mille Miglia.{{cite web|url=https://www.racingsportscars.com/type/results/Ferrari/212%20MM.html|title=All Results of Ferrari 212 MM|website=racingsportscars.com|access-date=12 November 2019}} In 1995 it was offered for US$349,000 and is since owned by a former Microsoft president, Jon Shirley.

The Ferrari 212 Export was powered by the SOHC, 2-valve per cylinder, Colombo V12 engine with increased capacity compared to the preceding model. Now the internal measurements were {{convert|68 by 58.8|mm|1|abbr=on}} of bore and stroke. The total displacement was {{convert|2562.51|cc|L cuin|1|abbr=on}}. With 8.4:1 compression ratio, maximum power output ranged from {{convert|150|PS|kW hp|0|abbr=on}} at 6500 up to {{convert|165|PS|kW hp|0|abbr=on}} at 7000 rpm, depending on the carburettors setup.{{cite web|url=https://auto.ferrari.com/en_EN/sports-cars-models/past-models/212-export/|title=Ferrari 212 Export|website=ferrari.com|access-date=24 May 2019}} Fuel was fed to the engine by three Weber 32DCF carburettors or alternatively three Weber 36DCF setup. The exception was the 212 MM with triple quad-barrel Webers and some early examples with only a single carburettor. The ignition system was made of a single spark plug per cylinder served by two coils. Engine lubrication was by a wet sump arrangement. Transmission was a 5-speed and non-synchronised.{{cite web|url=http://mitorosso.com/212225-export/|title=212 Export|website=mitorosso.com|access-date=12 November 2019}}

The chassis of the 212 Export was a new construction, still utilising steel tubes, elliptical in section. Later models could be equipped with a Gilco-designed Tuboscocca trellis frame, constructed out of smaller diameter tubes for increased rigidity.{{cite web|url=https://www.gilcodesign.com/doc/des/Ferrari212S_a.htm|title=Ferrari 212S|website=gilcodesign.com|access-date=12 November 2019}}{{cite web|url=https://www.gilcodesign.com/doc/des/Ferrari212S_b.htm|title=Ferrari 212S|website=gilcodesign.com|access-date=12 November 2019}} The wheelbase was the same as on the 195 S model, measuring {{convert|2250|mm|in|1|abbr=on}}.

The front suspension setup was independent with double wishbones and transverse leaf springs. Front shock absorbers were hydraulic of a Houdaille type. At the rear was a live axle with semi-elliptic springs and Houdaille hydraulic shock absorbers. Brakes were of a hydraulic drum type, all-round. The fuel tank had a capacity of 120 litres.
