the Ferrari market watch thread

Yep, condition condition condition. Having said that, if I got a deal on it…..

 

Glass delamination is fairly standard by this point on the pre 2000 cars. If they are not delaminating already they will be soon enough. It’s basically patina at this point.

 

Lol

Noticed there are 3 UK delivered 550s on Carsales for sale all at about $200k. The Melbourne car looks best in the pics

 

There’s no deals unless you have the time and tooling to do the work yourself. You’ll struggle to find a shop that wants to take on a basket case car that will tie up a large part of their workshop for months and years for a bargain price.

 

100% I’m semi-capable of tackling most underneath stuff, interior bits, r&r parts etc. I wouldn’t touch degreeing a camshaft without guidance, for example, but from what I can tell belts and the rest are entirely doable.

Hoist etc is in the same pipeline as the prospective car.

There will be questions.

 

Wrong interior colour for me on that one unfortunately. Haven’t looked into the blue interior one as yet…

 

So not an indication of water getting in there and pooling? Thanks, info like this is exactly the what I’m after.

 

Alright, which one of you lives here?

Stacking the Grange and 355s.

 

Well a red Daytona coupe just choofed past the front gate.

Not market watch, just a spotted.

 

There is this thread for that ..Aussie Ferrari Spotters Thread??...BUT..pics or it didn't happen!!!!

 

I did look for that thread, but I had just fainted. Apparently it came past a couple of times.

Hmmm I think they’ve conflated transaxle and transverse?

“Unusually, the gearbox was mounted transversely at the rear…”

 

And "the fastest 4 door car in the world"

 

I reckon it's a good buy at $165K

 

And then deliver it to Gizzi to fix all the dumb design faults. 25K later you'd have a brilliant car.

 

Or buy a 575 and have a better car

 

Don't want an auto...

 

25K? He said a bottle of bourbon and a blow job!

 

There are 3 UK 550 M's for sale at the same retail price.

There’s a kit for that

 

They're coming down...

 

:fingers crossed:

 

Just like your offer.
