I just checked my 1969 Euro Dino 246 GT #00508 Tipo L and found the exact same bumper edge indentation as Jon's. This was a new finding for me. Thanx. w/ smiles Jimmy

 

206 GT and L-serie have the same bumper and they look like yours and Jon`s
;-)

Thanx, Matthias. I knew that my L had same, thinner bumpers as 206s, but I wasn't aware of that minute detail of corner indentation. During my search few years back, my dilemma was between 206 and 246-L. For various reasons, I found this L available at the time which is what I was looking for. w/ smiles Jimmy

 

Congratulations on the car. Their timeless beauty is being realized in appreciating values.

The crazing and cracking seen in the photo of the fuel filler reminds me so much of my 72' Daytona (90% original paint). Unfortunately, the Daytona had fairly bad alligatoring between the headlights from earlier repaints done there. The new owner is doing a complete restoration. Mechanically nothing will be needed.

I enjoyed about seven years of ownership. Each year I said I was going to paint it but continued to receive the admiration of all those who saw it, as they knew what they were seeing. Not the same as a perfectly kept example, but enjoyed nonetheless.

I hope you do enjoy these times when you are enjoying it "as is." You will remember them fondly as a special time.

Enjoy the open roads!

 

Hello there;

I´d to know if any 206 owner can check for me the tail height of a 206 gt; the distance between the rear end of the boot cover and the ground.
It could be really helpful for me.

thank you.

 

I`m just coming back from my holiday. I can check for you.
You mean thr rear top end of the luggage boot lid to the ground, correct?
Regards Matthias

 

yes, that´s correct.

thank you

 

72,5 cm

 

Tire air pressure?

This is a fantastic detail on the early cars, so nicely finished!

Jimmy do you have any photos?

 

Does anybody know which 206 Dino was owned by Bob Bernand Newport Beach, Ca in 1972?
Aloha,
Mark

 

Excellent choice in color if I do say so myself.

 

Me too and that's why my 71 euro coupe will be the same color! It is on the East Coast so we won't be driving down the same streets! Great color!

 

great California license plate too

 

Jon,

I am in awe!
