Analysis is done, but I'm still waiting on the final report. Marcel attributes this body to Mario Allegretti, and of course he'd be correct....
No, I am certainly NOT hoping to prove this body was built by Scaglietti - I am 100% certain this is not a Scaglietti body; and I would NEVER...
The metallurgists I'm working with tell me that the particular alloy used changed both over time and by country of origin - in other words I'm...
Marcel (and everyone), In order to help put an end to the discussion on the origin of this body once and for all, I'm having it tested the second...
Marcel: Thank you so much for your reply. I am told the body was purchased by Joe Marchetti in 1970 and I have spoken with people who saw the...
Giving this a bump - does anyone have any idea if the sticker / tag would have been affixed by the carrosserie who built the body, or if it's some...
I'm trying to figure out who constructed the pictured aluminum Ferrari style body. It's a LWB body and it's evocative of a 250 LWB Berlinetta,...
Well, some would say it's not a Ferrari, but I've owned Dino 308gt/4 #10704 for 20+ years, and my daily driver is a GTC V8 (just replaced my 05 GT...
I put 131k miles on my 05 gt, with no major problems or issues at all. Wife has a 2014 Spur and so far so good. They are real cars, we use them...
No, they are not. Or, at least not any more than any other Volkswagen. ;) I have 131k miles on my 2005 gt, and it's had no major issues at all,...
Just IMHO, you'll do much better if you paint the lowers back to black, and put the rest of the car back to stock (e.g. take the horse off the...
Shamile, as you know, I'm a long time FChat member, though not very active anymore. Just for the record, though, I did pay $40k for #65247, a...
The 41k mile 1986 was #65247. It just had a top end motor rebuild and transmission rebuild, and was in very fine condition / very unusual color...
$154k. For those who follow such things, it was #65247, silver over tan.
Yes, truly horrible. This accident actually happened on my road, just past the edge of our land, probably 300 meters from the end of our...
The headlight dance is a common gt4 malady and is simply a stuck relay. It's under the floorboard on the passenger side - just stomping on the...
Yes, I have a second set of 19" rims specifically sold by Bentley for winter tires (they are narrower - 19x7.5). That said, you could easily buy...
Yes, it really works. Bentley sells a winter wheel and tire package for the GT and Spur, which you'll want. With 4 snow tires, it's a tank. I...
Even better, aftermarket but functionally identical sensors are widely available for $140 for a set of *4*. I know this for a fact as I just...
This is a well known problem with the early style 3rd brake light, which is susceptible to moisture intrusion. The answer is to replace it with...
