    Salutations,

    Probably won't be interested in an aftermarket exhaust this summer. We just finished building a house (actually we are finishing out the painting and flooring as we reserved those fun events for ourselves) so all spare change is heading in that direction for now.

    Sophia is doing quite well - all serviced out for the driving season and looking forward to a summer of fun events. She is heading to Dallas this weekend for a car show. She did quite well at the concourso in Houston during the FCA convention. Of course each event is a new experience and we shall see. Regardless, it will be a fun event.

    We seem to become more enamored of her each time she heads out of the garage. Superlatives could abound - but doubtless you know what we mean.

    We do need to do something with the pictures. One of my favorites is a picture of Carol getting Michael Schumacher's autograph during the F1 test day at Fiorano this past April.

    Hope Rachel gets back on the road soon.

    Ciao,

    John

    Hi John & Carol,

    Congrats and best of luck with your new house. Does this mean Sophia will get a new "bedroom"? Yeow!, such endless possibilities - - and all part of the "project".
    The empty space in my garage is making me crazy, but I learned long ago to not try to push an artist to complete the job. So, two or three weeks more and Rachel will be home.
    Good luck at the show this weekend.

    Cheers, Hank

    I know how you feel!! Every time I attend to "Rachel's" needs or desires, I go Over The Moon!!! By the way, when you put on the 348 rims - - make sure they're facing the correct way :). We've seen that one a few times, no?

    And now dear Mondial fans, may I show you a photo that was in my archives for over three years. I hope you all don't mind me sharing this with you. Cinder always seems to know what I'm up to. At this point in time, I was drooling and dreaming of that Prugna t Cab. So was Cinder!

    Cheers, Hank

    Oh come on Hank, that picture was taken yesterday.

    You're just looking for an excuse for that etch-a-sketch of a laptop that you're using...

    @Adnaan,
    That's a real "shiny" T you have there. Just Beatifull!!!!
    348 rims is a very good choice.
    And like Hank said: Don't put them on the wrong way. You shouldn't be the first. Yesterday at Spa I saw it again on a 348.

    Enjoy the T!!

    Thanks for the compliments guys, and the adivce too! I would have put them on the wrong way round without thinking, so I'll look out for it. I think i'll take them to a tyre shop first to make sure they are all balanced and everything.

    U know I dont have a picture of a Mondial t with 348 wheels so not really sure what it will look like. I've seen many pics of the earlier models with 348 wheels but not the t. Im sure it will look good though! :D

    Was at the Northern Ferrari day @ High Legh yesterday. I have a slightly better picture (than previous) of mine. Pretty stock, but I love it that way. BTW earlier in the thread I was Haccord :)

    Great looking car, whatever your name is! Now ur just trying to confuse us.

    To be honest i like them pretty much stock. Never liked a car with too much done to it. But my front wheels are balding and I prefer the look of the 348 wheels. Also hoping for an improvment in handling too (not that there is anything wrong!).

    How did u change ur screen name? I've always wondered how to do that but could not find it in profile.

    I had also posted my Mondial on another thread, but it looked appropriate to post it on this one too. It is perfect in every way with only 3,300 miles on the odometer. Very Stock...if you like that sort of thing!

    I do very much. In fact if I do change the wheels (probably when the tyres need replacing) I want to get non-metric. Are the 3.4T's imperial? If so that is choice, they do look better than mine by far.

    Send a PM to Rob Lay. He changed mine.

    Actually I recently acquired it, with that mileage-from a very serious collector. I have been looking for this car for many years...in fact too many to mention. The low mileage is a plus, but since I plan on using it I am sure the miles will accumulate, it is just nice to start out with a low mileage and very perfect car. ..and it has had the 30K service. I feel like I found a needle in a haystack-definetly worth the wait. And to top it off the seller was one of the best people I have ever dealt with....

    I guess it is true, good things come to those that wait,and wait ...and wait!

    I like the look of black Mondial cab with 355 wheels, would 355 wheels fit a QV without any mods? Thank you.
