    Wait until you talk with Steve and sense his energy, emotion and focus on the Dino.
    He only works on one car at a time and gives it complete attention.

    In speaking with him, he described to my brother and Dino friend Gary (photo) such minute details such as
    - the correct way to surface the channel for the door handle rod;
    - how the Dino had no flat surfaces and
    - how certain blocking techniques (sanding) could not be used in specific areas as it washes out important body lines.

    Tom, I love the color of your Dino. Right now it's at the top of my list for my 206!

    Hey OMG. I told Tom that my 246 gt is going to be Gergio too. However I am on the East Coast so we won't be bumping into each other much! I think it's an elegant look...quite excited about it too. I have spent many many hours on your Dino color post and I have finally decided! Happy New Years!!

    Tom,

    I know I'm a bit late to the party here but Happy New Year! Rob told me you got a new toy and I had to see for myself. A Dino and a Duke; my dream garage. All the best in 2013.

    Best Regards,
    Paul

    Wonderful addition, lovely display, congratulations!

    You even have the Liftmaster 3800 shaft drive garage door openers. I put one in my high lift bay and love it. It removes all the unsightly support structure hanging down from the ceiling and provides superior security with the track deadbolt.
    What attention to detail - FORZA!

    Thank you Paul. It's funny to think that the Ducati has more horsepower than the Dino .... and only weighs about 400 lbs. Well, you get the idea right?

    Yes, they call it the 'Residential Jackshaft Opener' .... Jackshaft, what a name, eh?

    But what's that PORSCHE sign doing on that column...I don't see any Porsche in that to-die-for garage.

    Got my summer '13 price guide in the mail. After reading through it for awhile I noticed some familiar Dino's on the cover ..... :)
