Thinking of Tom Meade, the American Ferrari Designer, and veteran, on the Fourth of July. Tom, you are missed by many, but not forgotten Your...
Sorry if I was unclear. I said Tom Meade's first windshield and a pillar of his design was the Thomassima IIII, which showcased what he learned...
Makes sense. That is how Tom and I achieved the sub 20 degree rake on the TIIII, so that was the way he did this Nembo. That was his MO. We lifted...
This particular Nembo had the most raked back of the three which made this one extra special. The TIIII windshield and A-pillar is the first...
Tom would be happy that it gets driven. He used to pick up parts and get around Modena in his GTO, among others. By get around I mean he told me...
Thanks Wayne. Dave restored so many aluminum bodies for Ron they blend together. I didn't ask if Ron raced it as he did with most all of them....

That is a pretty rough butt weld, but something like that I guess in very tight places could occur. Larger pieces with straighter edges were...
Not always... The Nembo Spiders, Thomassimas and all of Tom Meade's Ferraris were each fabricated using manichinos made of a steel wire framework....
The Pangea re-body is allowing me to quantify many things for the TIIII build, such as time lines, hours of labor, costs, materials and...
Yes, the spacing from the tub made the 355 unit the perfect choice. The engine will be attached to the transmission via a custom aluminum torque...
A gentleman and a scholar. Thank you. My wife beat you to pointing out my mediocre spelling, but I kept it a secret. Tom was an amazing writer and...
Great question, thank you. Looks and performance are the most crucial aspects in the work of Meade and myself. I am sticking with Tom's vision for...
