    I'd venture to say yes. My 420 had the reclining rear seat.

    Reminds me a bit of that Dino that looked like a mess, and now is beautful. I forget the thread.

    In a couple years I will read here, that this Maser was bought by one of us, for $14k, returned to it’s former glory, and turns out, it is an ex-Gilles Villeneuve blah blah blah. Gilles ran it at Monza, and Jacques wants to trade his apartment in Monaco for it.

    Had a chance to buy it 9 years ago when it was still shiny (more or less) and running. Too big a project then.....bigger now........:( Too bad; I've lusted after it since seeing it in person at a garage just outside Monza.

    Outdoor storage possibly? Patina is rough, but still it’s mighty desirable and just in time for the next F1 movie set.

    Different interior colour, then again 5 built supposedly.

    I have to agree that at the right price an auto isn’t a bad idea. As I get older, I’ve been thinking of adding a collector car with an automatic. Something like a Jensen Interceptor convertible, MB SL, etc.

    From the UK is this Alfa 8c spider bodyshell which is supposedly from an unallocated build, as not all the spiders were sold. Vendor says it should bolt straight on to a Granturismo chassis…they have lights etc for extra £££

    BIG project, but while you were at it I suppose you could make it a manual.

    Item number 134900802614 for those with ambition!
    Cheers.
