Chassis #031 and #053 both originated in Japan. #031 was part of the famous collection of cars owned by Yoshikuni Okamoto and #053 belonged to Yoshio Tsuzuki.
The #053 car was sold to Hong Kong in 2006, then about one year later it appeared at Salon Prive in the UK, being displayed by McLaren. Shortly thereafter it was spotted in the cargo hold of an airplane headed for what was said to be the Middle East and has not been seen since.
Chassis #031 came to the USA sometime in 2010 and resides in the Chicago area. The owner also happens to have F1 #001 which may have come to the USA in 2008 or 2009. Here's some more pics of #031 from Chelle on FerrariChat:
