Wouldn't it be extremely unusual for the engine and VIN numbers to be the same for a Dino? Did you actually see that engine no.?

 

can you please provide the correct engine no. (#6212 isn`t correct)
also helpful would be body and gearbox no. in case parts of this Dino will be on offer....

 

Is the original poster the same O'Rourke that makes the vinyl floor and foot pads for Dinos?

 

Please be advised that the correct engine number for this stolen Ferrari Dino is 0010932.

This car is somewhat unique in that we Mototechnique Ltd converted it to air conditioning some years ago using a small Japanese rotary compressor which sits below the engine and the passenger foot well is different to accommodate the air outlets, also it has a large radiator and F40 style fans fitted. Sorry I don't have a gearbox number please help to re-unite this beautiful car with it's owner.

 

No, that is my son Robert also known as Rorky who after training with us for 15 years now has his own business consistently turning out 1st class Ferrari interiors , check out his web site, you will find a great welcome Welcome. Please visit our shop, above left. - O'Rourke CoachTrimmers

 

Those interiors are indeed beautiful!

Good luck in your recovery efforts. Surely the car has not travelled far, and gone into hiding???

 

I'm so sad, this awful. My prayers for a safe recovery and then a slow, painful death to the thief

 

Dear Lord, hopefully it isn't headed to Japan.

 

Yes it is the same guy and last I heard he had some left if you need a set, excellent repros from what I am told.

I am surprised somebody stole the car as any idiot with 2 brain cells would realise it would be near impossible to sell even if it was broken into spares.

 

No, it is NOT the same guy. See Post #7 above. The OP, Telaio (Kevin O'Rourke), is the FATHER of Robert "Rorky" O'Rourke, of O'Rourke Coach Trimmers fame, which I didn't know until I saw Post #7.

 

Any update on this case? I assume it's still missing without a trace? So sad.

 

Still makes excellent repro's though but then you don't fit repro items on your car, do you?
