    You got it! I told you it was easy! I always loved this interior. And they used the car in a Bond movie as the bad guy's car. Can't get much cooler than that!

    Zach, I heard you need to study...;)
    Nah, this is more amusing. Somebody has to name Zach's car though....
    Try this one while we wait for the other one...Hey Bill, what other hints should we give? since this is FChat, maybe the name involves sportscars?

    Yup! The clock gives it away. And it was driven by the drug lord guy in (I believe) Licence to Kill.

    Sorry, I've been away for a while.

    If it's American, and it's a sports car then it must be a...

    It looks like a space ship, like something Flash GORDON designed...

    I could give you the address if you want it. You would just have to say you found out driving by and the garage was open. :)

    What I found interesting was 3 "hot rod" guages on the dash. Be nice to know what was under the hood and the history of this car.

    Alex, I'd like Deutsch-Bonnets for 1000 please?
    Pete? I'll let others go for the big money on who and where ;)
    <<Sur le plan purement sportif, en 1952, D.B participa aux Douze Heures de Floride à Sebring et y remporta la victoire à l'indice, ce qui fut un résultat très important pour la réputation de l'ensemble des constructeurs français dans le monde, à une époque où, précisément, disparaissaient les grandes marques telles que Talbot, Delahaye, etc. >>

    Nobody got Bill's car yet, !st T-Tops ever designed. :eek:

    My car has an April Birthday. :)

    Bill's car was a TASCO...The American Sportscar CO., designed by Gordon Buehrig, one built, not claimed by him as a great design. Mercury powered, 1st use of the T-Top.
    My car was a Volvo 179.

    The Cali s/n raises an interesting point. I have it as s/n 10327, which was indeed a very different shade red. By contrast, 10077 was the correct rosso rubino color (like this photo). But how can this be explained: http://www.ketchamimports.com/For_Sale_Ferrari_365_10327.html

    Has 10327 been repainted (and reupholstered, it would seem) to match 10077?
