    My apologies if this isn't the right thread to post this question, as I don't know if it fits in the Vintage sub-forum or in the Dino sub-forum.

    Are there any recent pictures of Dino 206 SP #014? And if so, could you kindly post them?

    The most recent ones I can find date from 1994.

    Not directed at Manfred specifically but just the general trend...

    I understand the desire to protect intellectual property (I am in the arts and it's my bread and butter). That said, we are all enthusiasts here, just sharing and viewing photos in an effort to feel joy and lift up each others days a bit. If one has easy access to the copyright info, then it should be shared, of course. If you see one of your photos appear uncredited, by all means claim it as yours. But I think on a small enthusiast-based forum like this, that the repeated attempts to police those who don't or can't post that info are grabbing the wrong end of the stick, respectfully, and it just strips the fun out of looking at beautiful Ferrari's and turns it into yet another source of grief in the world. I think we all respect the dedication of those who have spent decades studying and working with these cars, and I am sure no offense is intended. And nobody is making any money off of anyone's images here. Honestly, if someone were to want to steal them for some other more nefarious purpose, they probably wouldn't credit you anyway, even if they had all the owners info.

    And now, to paraphrase Balthus....let's look at the pictures.

    These are more recent photos of an already posted car, but I fell in love with it when I saw it recently, so posting again. Photo came from John Collins/Talacrest. A one-off 212 Inter Coupe bodied by Ghia-Aigle in 1951, according to Talacrest's website. So gorgeous! (ps- at least the rear window apparently started out as a split window. not sure about the front windshield).
    (pps- Some lucky bugger just bought it!)

    This car is achingly beautiful!

    (now I'm waiting for the knowledgeable guys to complain it was wrongly restored...)

    It might be my new all time favourite Ferrari. It's so beautiful!

    I gather from the description that there were modifications made to the windscreen (originally a split window) and maybe one or two other things, but that they were done long ago. I know the (almost black) midnight blue paint job is newish ( 7-8 years old I'm told) but not sure what colour it started its life in. As you say I'm sure a few here know all the details of the car. But whatever it was, it is now, as you say, achingly beautiful.

    Edit: Partial info per the for sale ad from Talacrest describing modifications. Looks like all changes made sometime in the mid-50's?...

    It's the word "stealing" that bothers me a lot. Always the same people using it and crying about the rules of their ©. The same people who never post a picture. Today, millions of photos are exchanged through the Internet and nobody cares about ©. A forum without photos is a dead forum.

    Yes, and the fact that the title of this thread is specifically "pics of vintages I find on the net". It seems that on a thread with that title that one could expect many photos whose source was unknown.

    I wondered what it was. Thanks. Another proof that rebodies often turn a beautiful car into an ugly car.
