    Of course it was, you may want to check old pix and dox.

    As soon as serial number 0404/MD ceased to exist, a new car using serial number 0404/M was built.

    Fantastic Christmas video by Kidston showcasing 8897 SF and 3729 GT. It appears that 3729 GT has been sold?

    someone- maybe who appreciates history- must have convinced the owners of 2537 GT to put the bumpers back on.

    ..and 2537 GT looks so much better with its bumpers, from the nose that we can see of it in Marcel's picture. Personally, not a lover of 250 GT California Spyders without their bumpers. 250 GT SWB California Spyder 2277 GT with open headlights was for sale for years and didn't sell without them. When it was returned to its original Nocciola Metallizzato colour and had its bumpers put back on it sold straight away.

    I was involved in 2277. Wasn't easy. However, the key problem was the overenthusiastic price expection, to put it mildly.

    2537 GT is undergoing a complete restoration and will then be red book certified, sometime in 2023. I am involved in this case.

    All of you involved in the sale must have seen my 2018 post here. ;) Didn't look good in resale red either. All the lost elegance of the car was returned to it with the bumpers and Nocciola colour.

    Here's the early SWB Cal Spy of Mario Fusina photographed in Via Martiri della Libertà in the city of Modena, on the right would be the Monument for those fallen during World War One.

    Great and amusing tribute to the 250 GTO and the charismatic Graham Hill. Class act also at the end for remembering Ing. Mauro Forghieri, who concluded the design/development of the 250 GTO as his first of many projects in charge of the Racing Department after the 1961 Palace Revolt when Chiti and Bizzarrini were fired.
