How shall we characterize this "Speciale" Queen Mother? VIN 11061 was invited to The Quail. [ATTACH]
A 375 America, not a 250 GT Europa.. I stand corrected. Wonderful car, and, by the way, nicely filmed. But... Sophia....
This example is obviously set up for vintage racing, and if you look at the way it's been prepared it more resembles NASCAR than period Ferrari....
