    My neighbor said he saw a white Ferrari Car-B-Que on the Causeway Thursday, anybody know who's it was? He did not know the model so it is possible it was another make.

    Interesting. Not aware of any white Ferrari's in the area. I'm pretty sure the white TR is gone, but I could be wrong.

    I thought that I heard of a white 308 in Mandeville/Covington but I'm not sure Imay have to go drive by Keith's Towing tomorrow and see if it is there.

    Now Ike, we aren't stalking are we??? ;);):D
    I'm always a little surpised to see a new car in town that we haven't seen yet. I guess I always assumed any owner would be in our circle, but there are owners out there who could give a rats a$$. Like the 348 owner in my neighborhood who didn't know what F1 was!!! (He kept the 348 for a few months and now has a VW 911)

    Sorry to hear of a crispy critter anyway.

    Regret to say that it was. '84 4-valve. Engine fire, no warning - just driving across the bridge. Smoke in rearview, by the time flashers on and looked back, flames. By the time I stopped, it was warm in the cabin. I just can't tell you how bad it feels to stand helpless and watch a car you love burn to the ground.

    Chip, I'm sorry to hear that. I was hoping my neighbor was mistaken about the make. Was it a fuel hose fire???

    It's always sad to hear of another 308 catching fire.

    Nonetheless, no one was hurt...on the outside. ;)
