    "... and which are being brought back to us by our clients to restore them to their original factory condition."

    At 1:41, we can see the 121 LM Scaglietti spyder s/n 0558/LM with a non-original nose which was on the car only when it was raced in USA in 1956 and 1957, certainly not in 1955.

    What is the story there ?

    The nose was modified at the factory winter 1955/56 after the car had overheated at the Caracas race in November 55.

    Now what is original and non-original? The way it was originally built or the way it left the factory one last time...?
