    nice, but this feels like spam for some reason.

    why - I am an enthusiast putting together a website for enthusiasts and don't earn any money from it.

    regards - Rod

    Thanks guys,

    Tomorrow I am doing the 575 SA and then as a bit of a celebration for reaching my 50th pdf I am doing the Enzo, which will be either 4-6 pages.

    The site will always be a bit biased to Ferrari (as in quantity of articles) and I hope to get through about a hundred Ferrari related ones in the first year. So... that would be about three hundred pages. Not a bad size book for nothing I feel. and it should look pretty impressive when all the pages are together.

    In the near future I am also planning older and historic models as well as getting down to individual chassis histories.

    Cheers - Rod

    I have put the 575 SA pdf up early as I am off to ChromeFest early in the morning to get some good photos before the crowds arrive. ChromeFest is a local Rod and Custom show on the Central Coast of NSW here in Australia. An ideal location on an inlet to a Lake - so quite picturesque. It would make a great venue for an exotics show in the future.

    Jack, I take it you have a 330 GTC - I am gathering photos at the moment, I don't quite have enough good one yet.

    If you have good images and have your cars history I will ad an extra two pages on it. As I said I want to to individual chassis numbers - I think for all pre-Daytona it might be manageable over several years.

    Cheers - Rod

    Hi all, I just put my 50th Car of the Day pdf up on my site - the ENZO.

    A small celebration for me and the 11th Ferrari article.

    Hope you like it. Cheers - Rod

    Thank you Latsyrc,

    I have now put together an index page which makes it easier to find just the Ferrari articles.

    Cheers - Rod

    Great site that requires a lot of work to produce, which makes me think that this is meant to be a 'FREE' market research project to see if there is enough interest to gain paying subscribers in the future.

    I may be right or I may be wrong but, no matter the intent, I commend you on producing a very professional and interesting site!

    With all due respect,

    Sparky

    Hi Sparky, I can assure you this is not a market research project. I am "between jobs" and decided to do this while I am waiting on the phone to ring. It seems there are now LOTS of Snr IT Project Managers "between jobs".

    What I have done is set the site up so that I can get a full article and pdf done in 30-60 minutes when I do get my next job ..... so it will continue. I suspect after a year or so the site will have a regular readership large enough to look at what I do commercially, but it is not a focus .. I am doing it as a hobby and simply because I am a car nut.

    Cheers - and thanks - Rod

    love the Lotus Exige Scura on the page, will soon buy one maybe next year after i sell my 350, the Exige is just so compact and handling is sick, drove one up the crest few months ago, fell in love.

    Rod, sorry for my somewhat skeptical post. It seems you are sincere in providing a site for the enthusiasts without any intent of monetary recompense.

    My thanks go out to you.

    Great Job,
    Sparky

    Hi all and Sparky

    Thank you all,

    Today I have put up a large pdf on the F430, it is making a good set with the two Scuderias and the 458

    And Sparky - you may just get proven right - I have had a couple of inquiries and the job front is looking good.

    Cheers

    Rod

    Nice site, it looks very well done. I was just reading the PDF about the Pagani Zonda F, and I never knew that the F stood for Fangio. I had never even thought about it before.

    Keep up the good work :)

    Thanks Ryan - yep apparantly Horacio Pagani is a huge Fangio fan - I myself am a bit of a fan of Horacio Pagani.

    I have no put up a four page pdf on the 430 Spider to go with the 6 page coupe/berl from saturday.

    Cheers - Rod
