    I used to have another one, of a 512 in the pits at night, but I couldn't find it. Apologies, I do not know who owns the copyright to this photograph.

    Note the plexiglass covered cockpit ventilation air outlet in the roof with two holes.
    At Monza #1004 used engine #2 and gearbox #13.
    The Berlinetta bodywork was of the new Series II nose style and slats over the water radiator exits.

    1004 was high speed tested on the Italian Autostrada Santena-Villanova (near Torino) with long tail bodywork, fitted with gearbox #5, on the 11th and 12th May 1970.
    Previously it was tested May 4, 1970, at Monza, then May 8, 1970, at Monza, May 9, 1970, at the Modena Aerautodrome, then May 20, 1970 at Modena again and May 21 and May 26, 1970, at Monza. And then again on June 3, 1970 at Modena.
