Martin, thank goodness you can still tuck her in tonight. You know, this sibling rivalry stuff can be pretty hard to deal with. Better hope the 348 doesn't get pissed off and decide not to turn over in the morning! :-) |

MArk, this car was built on a 308GT4 chassis. The car was stripped and body parts cut off then a mold was built onto the rest and the new body parts were created. Then a mold was taken of the new body parts (I have those as well). The rest of the car was cut away and replaced with kevlar honny comb and firbreglass. I can not tell you how mean it is yet, I have to sort out some problems with the ignition first. My mechanic is coming over Saturday to look at the car and see what he can do. I will post some pictures of the history of the car. Have to scan them in first. Gotta do that when I have the time. Tax season, gotta get the feds happy!

Martin, did the 348 lose the garage? Mark, with all those wings, I think it's an F-16! |

I figured I will keep the wings. They are perfect to have a FerrariChat Member meeting and seat at least 10 people with drinks and food. The top one is a double wing. You know how it is when you go to track events and you can not find a place where to put your plate and drink? ..that is why they invented spoilers! See the spoiler as "family friendly" - bring the kids! |

This is the new toy I just picked up in Upper PA. These are the first shots taken last night. Lots of extras came with the car. Looking forward to take this baby on the track!
