There were 13 Series 1 (including the orange 1966 prototype, chassis 097) with production eventually starting in September 1969 (chassis 264, red with black interior) into 1970, then 4 Series 2 1970-71. So this should be a Series 1 - the show date and colour match means it could be chassis 264 with the paint still wet, but not confirmed.

Miuras, Monteverdis and Daytona Spiders were also on my gorgeous list, but somehow just not quite as perfect as Grifos and Ghiblis.
