GTE Car Chase

Wayne:

You asked about movies that used 250 GTEs. I have five as follows:

Movies featuring GTEs

1961 GTE Rain Man 1988
1961 GTE Le Corniaud (The Sucker) 1965
1962 GTE The Wrong Arm of the Law 1963
1963 GTE Poliziotto Sprint (Highway Racer) 1977
GTE La Decima Vittima (The 10th Victim) 1965

I do not know where to access them.

Though warez isn't my cup of tea, in terms of the first film mentioned being downloadable... Google: "Poliziotto Sprint" warez returns a host of results.

If the summary on post 4 from following link matches what you've seen, Poliziotto Sprint is what you were looking for:

When I lived and raced in France many years ago I saw a film titled "Policy Auto Sprint". I cringed when a GTE jumped a huge ravine along side a DS. The GTE actually landed well and came out unscathed the DS flipped over. Could this be the same movie? BTW I still own a GTE sn#2831 and a Citroen.

 

Great car with lots of unique features! Did you ever paint it blue? If so, you'll have to post a photo.

Please send me your mailing address to: [email protected]
and I will send you a FREE copy of the 250 GTE Newsletter. I think you and 2831 will enjoy it.

Hi Bill
Thanks I've been meaning to send off to you membership in the registry especially since my dad was one of Len's original members from the first year. I've taken over ownership of 2831 and am looking forward to driving her soon since a 3 year total mechanical rebuild. I'll start the paint when funds recover and I'll most likely go back to the original Blu Sera - here's what she looks like now. Kind Regards NCB

Andruet many interesting design details on your Ferrari. Both inside and out. Great interior, especially the dash layout. Were those cars over 3500 pounds? It looks tidy compared to the RR...

Andruet, those must be old pictures.....arent your valve covers ALOT prettier now?

By the way did John's Buano leave yet?

 

Damn I knew you'd notice the dirty valve covers LOL The head retorque service left the covers a mess. So as you know that day you were in the shop I resprayed them. Looking good now. BTW when we last rebuilt the motor about 25 years ago I baked the wrinkle paint in my mums oven - worked great except every Sunday roast from then on smelled like a spraybooth! My GTE actually weighs less than a Lusso at 2845 lbs. I've weighed both on the same scales down at the Leslie St Spit. The dash on a GTE should be body colour but mine is wrinkle black and when I stripped it once there was no evidence of the exterior bodycolour....weird. GTO shiftknob. Power windows and door pockets like the GTE prototipo and the babyseat harness which I added. The motor and exterior unique features I think have been mentioned before. Last I heard the Boano is being prepped for its new owner. Another longstanding Cdn car going south.
Happy Easter NCB
