Sorry Peter, I was thinking about the Diablo....
Fuel Tank could go on the passenger seat. Sort of a reminder to drive safe! Don't smoke while on the track....LOL |

The Miura V-12 is transverse, essentially like the 3-series Ferraris. Quite compact.
...Although it is very wide, hmmmm, where should the fuel tanks go? (and they would need to be pretty big tanks!) |

I am basically closing the deal today.
I would say this baby has a new home.
Plan on taking the trunk out of the car and use the whole rear for engine.
V-12 Lambo, Not that I can think of. I have seen the Lambo engine out and that would mean even with deleting the trunk ad another 2 feet to the car for engine compartment. |

Hey Peter! I was talking to Peter the other day via email, and that thing caught my eye as well. Wonder if you can stuff a Lambo V12 in that P250? I think he wants $6500 for it now. Its a steal if you ask me. |

It is more a question if it makes financial sense. My quote right now is for $ 990 to ship the chassis. For some reason that car is in CA instead of the Eat Coast.
Will call your people as well Paul, thanks!
Don't expect anything soon on this car. I am taking my sweet time with it. |

Martin,
I use transport masters 561-988-1588 they are auto shipment brokers, they will put your request out for bid and get you price from some 100 different companies. I use them for my ferrari and they are great people.

I actually thought about buying that car....
....Although, I would've shoe-horned in a V-12 into that thing!
Forza Motorsports also has a nice Lamborghini Urraco for sale with no drivetrain, but nice shape body and reupholstered interior for something like $8500.... Maybe that'll be my next project! J |

Hey Martin, its about time someone jumped on that blue car! It used to be for sale by Pete Sweeney up in Connecticut. You probably got a great deal on it, as it has been for sale for over a year. Toss a 308 engine in it, a fire suppressor system, a fuel cell and some harnesses and you are ready to ROCK!! Have fun and let us see pics as you finish it!
Good luck Martin!

Thanks William,
they referred me to somebody that does come down here to FLA and they gave me a reasonable price.
I guess I will be buying a Ferrari 208GT4 Track car! Need lots of work! |

I have a rolling chassis that is iin California and that needs to go to Florida. Most car carriers will not deal with only a rolling chassis or if they do thay ask crazy $$$.
Has anybody ever tried the rail? Time is not important, neither is ground clearance I think. It is a 308GT4 to be converted for track.
Any ideas? |
