    How many were there?

    I know of a 195, two 212s, a 250, and the body that was on the 166 #002 for a short time. Photos please if you have any.

    Thanks,
    Stu

    Stu, you might seek out a copy of Jess Pourret's article on the Motto-bodied Ferraris that appeared in Prancing Horse #149.

    Thanks Wayne!

    I didn't know about the article....than again, I'm not a FOC member. Where can I get a copy?

    As far as quality of work, I've seen a couple of Motto bodied cars with the paint stripped off, and the joining of panels is immaculate.

    Motto also did all the Siata 208 spiders under subcontact, and the D46 Cisitalias, along with any number of "etceterinis".

    It's an FCA publication, actually. I would gladly give you mine but, alas, I'm not an FCA member either. The good news is that you can purchase that issue here for $9.75.

    Hello

    I did the cover shot of PH #149 and have some more pics of that car.
