    I know that I may be in the minority, but I think that it would look even better without the roof spoiler - JMO...

    Thanks for your comments.
    Believe it or not I would like to make a total restoration to it, but I still have to put asside the right some for it.

    My next project is a sports exhaust, choice leaning towards a Larini system. Appreciate any feed back.

    Till then I have to work hard for my family and Red Baby too.

    This Christmas might be in Chicago, maybe I see a Ferrari passing by.

    I agree with Steve Magnusson, it would look better without the roof spoiler. I plan to delete mine when I do an engine out next year.

    Everyone has his ideas. Mine is that of the original stuff.

    IMHO the way that 328 came out from the factory line was nearly perfect (because I would like to upgrade the muffler :) ).

    This week Jim made my year as he mailed me the only missing part ie a clip which is located on the right hand engine hood hing. Thanks Jim.

    However I appreciate your comments too.

    No, the steering wheels on the right side for driving on the correct side of the road! ;)

    Lovely car! I hope there are a few roads on Malta / Gozo where you can enjoy it. It's been a long long time since I was there.

    Yes, I bought it from Norwich, however it spent majority of its life in the London area.

    I bought it with 35000 miles on the clock and presently got 36200 over a period of three years and 4 months.

    In 2012 I would like to try and locate and establish contact with its previous owners maybe get some old photos of my baby.

    One of my biggest regrett is that to re register it in my country ( still in Europe) besides paying Euro 31000, Maltese authourities took and disposed of my uk Personalised number plates. They where part of its history.

    Can I make a copy of them in the uk???

    Do you know on what plates the car was registered whilst it was in the UK?
    Or the chassis number? I may have some photos of it from various events over the years.

    Beautiful car. It is an early example with the concave wheels just like mine. I like that very much.

    Chassis no: ZFFWA19C000067441. Originally it was registered as D89 GBF but around 1993 it was registered as 80 HOT. Then in 1995 it was returned to original number.

    Thanks for any help, any known history would be highly appreciated.
