This is a beautiful car. I owned 883GT for a few years and would cherish an opportunity to own another Ellena or Boano bodied car. And as always, Wayne is right in that this is a high-roof Elena. |

Great car! I took many laps at Roebling Roads with Gordon and shared the track with him at VIR a few weeks ago. He drives it like it was meant to be driven and still won "best of show" at the VIR track weekeknd concours. |

It's a great pleasure seeing cars coming to life with a serial number. |

Also, this is actually a later "Ellena" bodied model. Note the tall roof line. |

This is 0867 GT owned by Gordon Edwards, Chesapeake, VA. The license plate "TDF PRTS" is Gordon's humorous reference to the fact that many of these Boano/Ellena coupes were sacrificed for parts to restore TDFs. |

Sorry, I don't have pictures of that F40. And of course we are talking about a 250 GT Boano and not a TDF, but I presume it to be slip of the fingers. |

This is the EARLY 250 TDF that won the Savannah FCA concours in 2000! Let me see if I can dig up the SN. |

Again I'm looking for the serial number of this Virginia plated Boano.
