    Dear Joe:
    A great thank u for the clear info and the really, really rare photo! But I do question if this photo is from Le Mans 1995 for the car's number is 40 rather than 34, which should only appear on 74045 during BPR 1995 season.
    I suspect this is actually taken during the qualifying of the 1995 Paris 1000km, for the weather condition is simular and the car did have an accident then. BTW, 74045 was red until Paris 1000km that year.

    I came across an ad for this French firm in my latest edition of “Cavallino”. I thought it could be a good resource for any owners. I have no affiliation:

    87219, one of three USA F40s we've owned over the years, it now belongs to a Southern Gentleman with one of the best eclectic Supercar collections in the USA.

    93139 is a low-miles F40 we sold in late 2014 to a client after the main dealer failed to sell it.

    A story persisted caused by an uneducated inspection that it had frame damage.

    So we brought it to Ferrari SpA and had Classiche Director John Amette closely inspect it and carefully calibrate the frame.

    See the illustration below - no frame damage with all dimensions within factory spec.

    No doubt you mean Ferrari of Newport Beach in Newport Beach, CA/USA, not Ferrari SpA in Maranello, Italy.

    That's why I posted it and you're the first to comment! The end of an era.
