Dino Pouch Set with a healthy start out of the shoot...

This came up yesterday on ebay:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/246-Dino-ferrari-manual-and-leather-wallet_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ119133QQihZ020QQitemZ300058554090QQrdZ1

reserve was quickly hit at $2k. Now it is at $4800 without having even been listed for 24 hours. being a nine day auction, it will be interesting to watch.

does anyone know what the booklet with the purple helmet on it is? this pouch appears to be from a euro car, so maybe it is euro specific, i haven't seen it before.

Very weird. For a couple of hours the item was missing from my watched items, and when I clicked your link, it was dead, now it's back....

What has you been putting into those Ferrari chat mugs?

 

How do we even know it's original from the photo? From what can be seen, it looks just like mine. When I showed photos of mine here, I was told it wasn't original! I'm still smarting from that, and trying to figure out how a non-original pouch got into a one-owner car...

It's made me afraid to show anybody my pouch

 

your pouch is original ferrari, just not dino. your pouch is more recent. i would guess the pouch was inadvertently swapped at some point before they became valuable - maybe when being service, or ??????

 

the pouch is appropiate from late 72's to early 74's. it is identified as a 73. based on the interior of the pouch (fabric, pocket layout, etc) it can be identified as matching this style of pouch. refernece the dino pouch threads for other photos

Shoot? Chute? Anyone that confuses the two should be Chot!!!

LOL

 

mental lapse i guess, that is funny that none else caught that

 

By the guy who is now selling it on ebay

 

It has the very rare Warranty AND MSF 1972 booklets in the set,
very impressive!

Are you asking us to find them all?

 

i plead ignorance, what is the msf booklet?

 

i don't believe the msf booklet is a ferrari dino factory item. please correct me if i am wrong.

the philips radio booklet is a dealer installed item, and not factory either.

 

FWIW the MSF booklet says "Europe's largest Race and Sportscar Show" across the top. And has a (to me, anyway) unreadable date in the lower righthand corner. Perhaps it is a promotional booklet for an auto show?

 

alright, here's the real story:

the msf booklet isn't a booklet, it is a sticker from an auto show (in no way related to the car, other than it was placed in the pouch way back when by a previous owner) = no value

the radio instructions are not factory documents and were stuck in the pouch when a radio was added after the fact = no value

we all know what the rest of the stuff is :

owners manual
parts manual
dealer directory for 1973
warranty card
pouch

Then, WSPEER replies
"mental lapse i guess, that is funny that none else caught that"

Well, no, the rest of us were too polite to point it out. Leave it to some English speaking Canuck living in that FRENCH speaking (and perpetually WHINING) part of Canada to point that "shat" out.

 

thanks

 

Sold at $7100.00

 

only one word is appropriate - "unbelievable"

however, we all know the buyer. my question is who was bidding against him? i hate this new ebay hidden buyer system

 

Was not me!!

Not interested at that money. I only need a pouch.

Waiting for Tom S. to finish his #1 quality repros.

Crazy! $7k+ for a leather pouch? I am definitely not convinced these things are worth that kind of money. Reminds me of tech stocks in 1999.
