    Did I drive my Fiat Dino today? The answer is no, but I am selling it on *bay in the next week or two if anyone's interested in buying a rare piece of Italian motoring history (1972 Fiat Dino Coupe 2400). The car is located in Sullivan County New York. It's a project car, complete except for the engine and transmission (I bought it that way). The rest of the car needs a complete restoration. The color is Grigio Silverstone Metallic with grey and red velour and vinyl interior. The picture below shows it in "barn find" condition when I bought it. The condition of it now is pretty much the same. Much more info and pictures to come, on *bay.

    Yes, but I'm in the process of attaining the original engine/trans. This process may take up to a year, so thats why I'm not including any explanation of the engine/ trans in the sale ad. I will, however, give the new owner of the car the first right of refusal to purchasing the engine/trans if/when I procure it.

    I don't give out the VINs of any of my cars, but I did recently give that info to the Dino Registry in Italy for their records.

    So if you want to sell your car here you just have to provide more info., more pictures. Perhaps there will be more photos and info on fleebay. It's just my opinion. There was a 68 Coupe was for sale on here three weeks ago and it was sold less than 24hrs. The seller provided tons of info and photos even contact phone number.

    Ok, Thanks for the info, I agree. The intent of this post was not to hijack this thread and list the car for sale, but to let interested parties know that it will soon be available on *bay. I didnt want to sell it on this website because I'm not putting a specific price on the car; so am giving the buying public the opportunity to bid on it instead. Personally, I think that if any car sells in 24 hours then it was priced too low, which that other Dino was..

    Doesn't look like you have much height for this lift? Or is this just a bad angle? I'm looking for a way to convert my 2 post lifts to have drive on ramps, so I can lift the cars by the wheels. Any ideas?

    I just had the garage door lifted 12 inches and it fits two cars. Very tight though. I must stay skinny to get in and out. Yeah and having that problem after the holidays...

    Word is the seller didn't make that much money. Pay for the restoration and get the car for free.

    I think I saw in the Gooding description something like "over $200k in receipts . . ." Only 424 produced.
