    I understand what you are trying to prove :

    all the Venezuelan Scaglietti spyders had two fins on the wheel nut except :

    - The Pola and Lollobrigida spyder.

    - The Oliver's Ferrari Mercedes.

    - The Yellow stuff.

    - And the strange custom spyder that you called "N 0302 T.F.".

    Only these fours cars had three fins on the wheel nuts and so, you must think that these four spyders are only ONE car and so, the s/n "N 0302 T.F.".

    And 0534 and 0562 always had two fins on the wheel nuts.

    Why not but :

    - why the yellow stuf had large side vents and the Pola/Lollobrigida/Oliver only small vent ??

    - if you agree the early Scaglietti spyder #50 at Caracas 1957 and Bogota in 1959 was s/n 0302TF, why this car had two fins on the wheel nuts ??

    For the last question, I can reply myself : possibly because the ex-factory ex-Marzotto early Scaglietti spyder was not 0302TF but another unkown s/n which could mean the Pola Scaglietti spyder was really 0302TF and not 0534, neither 0562...

    This is the Boano in 1965, Fayen used #18 many years.

    You noted a few things but, the Lollobrigida and yellow stuff are out of my equation and possibly the same car, the strange spyder is the Oliver Mercedes that is a fact.

    See above
    Correct but these two are also out of my equation, we know they are in Europe.

    See first answer




    I will appreciate any information that proves that that car is 0302, so far I have only red assumptions.
    If you look at a photo of the original Berlinetta 0302 it had 3 fins, coincidence?

    In fact, only the #87 is a Boano (s/n 0529GT). The #18 is an Ellena and most probably s/n 0745GT.

    More from Venezuela:

    1953 Ferrari 500 Mondial s/n 0404

    By some sources and historians, this particular car is considered to be the very first Scaglietti bodied Ferrari, and in 1955, after beeing campaigned in Europe by several drivers (Picard, Tringtingnat, Marzotto, Marzotto brothers, and some others), the car went to South America to take part at the Venezuela Grand Prix, driven by Gilberto Cornacchia (#50). The car was sold in Venezuela and was raced by several drivers, including Raúl Domínguez, who went to Colombia in 1959, winning its class at the Bogotá Grand prix. It went back to Venezuela and since then, I have not been able to stablish its whereabouts.

    For many years, I have been trying to stablish its serial number but its origins are not clear at all and there’s still controversy on wether 0404 is the real one.

    Below, some pictures at the 1954 Mille Miglia and the Bogotá GP

    You can see in this thread that we think now this early Scaglietti spyder coud not be 0302TF.

    And if this car had really received s/n 0404MD, it's necessary a restamping of an older s/n as 0404MD is a 1954 s/n and this car was raced already in late 1953.

    I personnaly think that s/n 0386 could be the good one as there is no PF job number for this one and the range fits perfectly with late 1953, but it seems I'm alone to think that, so the debate is still open...

    Thank you very much for your help.

    It was a hillclimb, and Oliver is the one who made the car I assume it can be possible.
