    Thank you for sharing it in its former track livery. Last thing I known it was rebuilt to original road spec and sold on auction by Bonhams in April 30, 2010.

    Second owner D. S. of Seattle/WA had crashed 84838, the wreck went to a Portland/OR scrapyard, it then became the Roland Lindner "F40 LM comp car".
    Last seen in Mamaroneck/NY.

    If you look at the block closely, you can see that someone has simply sprayed silver-grey paint over a severely fire-damaged block without bothering to strip the unit to bare metal.

    Wow. How long did it stay in Bahrain? Part of a big collection in 1987?

    Just finding this thread having joined recently. I can understand both sides of the debate. If your objective is to preserve an antique so that you’ve got an antique then originality, or as close to originality as you can get, is the overarching end in itself.

    For those of us who are into racing/driving/engineering, we know that our road F40s were badly built, had terrible brakes and turbos, Poor standards of construction both with the frame and the bodywork, and were generally fairly shoddy.

    If you aren’t trying to maintain a museum piece, I really don’t understand why you wouldn’t swap out brakes, turbos and some other parts for ones that actually work properly. Old stuff doesn’t work very well. Badly chosen second rate old stuff really doesn’t work well at all.
