Very interesting original grill, wonder at what point it was switched to the more familiar Ferrari grill.

 

This in not the grill from 3269

Hi Guys, I have some information on my car it has been sold and is back in the United States ! More information then that I don't feel I can disclose ... That would be something for the new owner.
As far as the book I talked about by Antoine Prunet I have not received my copy(I don't know if I ever will) which would be very sad for me.
If anybody has the book written by Antoine Prunet maybe you could inform me of the title or a picture of it would be great it would be much appreciated.

For any of you that might be interested in the article written by Mick Walsh classic and sports car magazine April 20-2020 issue ... Here is a link to the same article article online.

Bill,

Was the Prunet book ever published? I’m in the book forum here almost every day and I’ve never seen it mentioned. Do you have the title or publisher? I’ll be glad to check around for it.

Jack.

 

Could it be the book Fantastic Ferrari's by Prunet? There are several cars covered I understood:

Tech just sent this photo with my little horse in grill.....it's a one off that was made for the car I have had it on a piece go wood for years

I wonder why it was such a limited print run. They could have sold more than that at Amelia, Pebble and Cavallino. Perhaps @Marcel Massini has some information about it.

 

So true! But we try, rehearsing with a nice view......

Nice!
That a 16 lug Gretsch snare?

 

Yes! Stop sign badge! Good eyes! Rest of my Gretsch jazz set is at home, this is a Yamaha gig set. Great to have some fellow drummers on this community.
Ciao
Oscar

PS the 24” cymbal is a Dream one (bliss series I think). At home I have old K’s but this one really is great!

 

Those Dream Bliss cymbals sound great for the money...a little gongy at times, but nice. Old K's on the other hand always sound amazing just like a Ferrari V12.

If I posted before sorry ...

 

Great thread!

Robert Garvin told me I can NOT sell the Ferrari.....even in hard times.
On Line 2, Mom told me I can NOT run away to Louisiana, and play drums in some dive bar..

So, I'm just watching the river flow....

I'm sure I have a copy of "Fantastic Ferraris", but what is the other title ya'll are mentioning?

 

Hi, The guy who just bought my old car (I'ts back in the U.S.) said he had a copy in the trunk never got mine from Antoine. Image Unavailable, Please Login
His copy is in French...):

 

I met a French girl at COTA with a 24H team, as I showed her the Track for her photo work, I realized I know about five French words, mainly food!!

 

Haha...well as I said have seen it but should be lots of pictures, when I working with Antoine the past year I sent lots of em.
His english is sounded pretty good from his emails.
I just sent him another email tonight....

Buy the way I wish "Robert Garvin told me I can NOT sell the Ferrari.....even in hard times"
