    This photo shows that there are rectangular reflectors on the rear vertical panel under the "Dino GT" script and the FamilyCars ad shows they've been removed.

    Nice to see it was renewed. Too bad about the red. The gray with white interior looked very good and is per the Heritage Certificate.

    It was fun while I had it. Since then have owned a Testarossa and now playing with a Jaguar XK140 Coupe.

    i didn't want to go into too many details about the car without you chiming in, but it was a great buy for you when you bought it. a labor of love to mecahnically repair it, and passing on the torch experience once you moved on.

    i am surprised at the asking price, but then again, i don't know what was spent on cosmetic repairs.

    No problem about talking any details. It is not a questionable car with a sordid history.
    I am very happy to see it looking very good from a cosmetic standpoint. I did learn a great deal from working on it. It was in very sound condition mechanically when I let it go.

    Thanks to Mike and Laurie I was able to get the motor in. They were a great asset. The midrise lift made it very easy also.

    Who knows, I may look into a 1990+ V8 Ferrari for my next car to learn from. I have already mastered the Jaguar from the mechanical / electrical perspective. Time for it to go!

    Regards,
    Richard

    it was removed, just like the us spec reflectors.

    for what it is worth, the dino has know had it's auction canceled. did it sell or will it come back, i would be curious to see what the story is. the car is a great car that we all know (if not - please search). somebody needs to buy and enjoy this car.

    The car was in Irvine today at the Car & Coffee car show. See the post in the Southern California section.
