    Yes.

    Raymond, it looks quite different doesnt it?

    I would have gone with the original "Azzurro Cielo" though but this dark blue looks simply fabulous in person I assure you!

    #5080 became a chameleon... I thought it might be Emilio's car which was recently painted with the silly gold sills to look like a hotwheels, the current owner didn't like the hotwheels look?

    Emilo:

    An expert has indicated to me that the period factory rear shot of the mechanic working on that SV is in fact the Shah of Iran's special SV, #4870.

    There are 2 things I check on Ferrarichat daily. Tristate section and the Miura thread. I'm 25 years old, I don't know anybody else my age that would take a Miura SV over any car, it's timeless, it's beautiful like no other!

    Recently we had a Supercars event in NY and Miura was the first in my list of cars that I invited and sure enough it felt right at home in the middle of 20 other extremely rare and powerful supercars.
    Enjoy the pictures...

    Joe, I'm sure you recognize Joe B's car.

    It looks like they might have been great pics but They loaded painfully slow. I couldn't wait.

    Post your pictures here!

    Wonderful!

    0961 should actually have headlight bezels in satin black (not unfinished steel as shown) and the tailpipe tips should be the black-annealed tubular items that all early P400 had (rather than the P400S items now fitted)... the silver livery looks fabulous on an early car.

    I'd love to see interior shots if you have them. What was the condition of the car before restoration?

    Alberto,
    unfortunately I don`t have other shots as I was in a hurry catching my plane from Bologna - but it was black.

    Condition of the car was quite bad when they got it.

    Ciao!

    The car was silver, with dark gray dashboard (leatherette), black seats and door panels (Connolly leather) and red carpets. Now the interior is all black.
