    OK.

    I confess.

    I almost bought a Ferrari.

    Pics below, pouring rain outside so crappy inside pics.

    A tremendous THANK YOU to Dave M for the wonderful job he did restoring this car (for me :) ).

    Also, thanks to a first class transporter, Applewood Motorcar who delivered the car to my door from Algar in Philly:

    Now....for that 330GTC....... :)

    What. No pictures of the eight boxes of spare parts???

    Sorry to see her go, but, at least I know she's in a good home.

    Congrats!

    Dinos are fun cars and leave plenty of space in the garage for motorcycles.

    Oh my.

    Ran that little sucker today, what a HOOT!

    The sound produced a stupid smile that simply would not leave. And the burbling on decel, I LOVE carburetors!

    What a lovely view out the windscreen, those two arches over the tires, just lovely.

    Oh, you want to turn HERE? Then just tweek the wheel!

    And the smell.... the gas and oil and leather and what ever that old car smell is in old European cars...oh me...

    Too fun....

    Can there be any better experience than driving a Dino?

    Yep.

    Driving a Dino for five years, deciding it's time for it to get a new home, and it gets one where it is truly appreciated.

    Now go man, go!!

    I have a short list of cars I'd like to own one day.

    Dino coupe is on the short list, and this particular one I trusted to be "as represented" so the hammer dropped.

    Dang I love this car.
