250 SWB Ferrari Original to view

Just remembered these pics I took at the NEC in 2012 of a 250 SWB

Now that I've had a good look at the pictures, I've spotted something strange...the information poster for the car says 1963, I'm not sure that any 250 SWB cars were made after 1962 when it was superseded by the 250GTO. A search of the DVLA website for the reg 5WB finds a 1961 Ferrari in red!
