    Beautiful car! How do you like the Pirelli tyres? I have them on mine and like them.

    Beautiful car and especially beautiful engine compartment. Looks as though you might be in Australia? Perth maybe? Just a guess!

    The Pirellis have proven to be excellent tyres, grippy, relatively quiet and long lived. Pictures were taken in Cornwall UK! WLTB in Oz!

    Keeping The Faith,

    Ray.

    The 3 greatest things I love about the 400's -

    #1 The engine bay
    #2 The rear end view
    #3 The spearhaed door handles

    All suberbly detailed and executed - Lovely car Ray.

    very nice, carbs look super clean...just redone ?
    while some Ferraris look great sitting still, the 400 only reveals itself in motion.

    Very nice example. Well done.
    Only one problem, they must have been drinking when they built your car. Have you ever noticed they put the steering wheel on the wrong side? :)

    But have you noticed how the ignition is easy to access? In our LHD examples, the switch is about 1/4 inch from the tunnel, making it difficult to turn the key. As Jody Sheckter said, it is like trying to put toothpaste back in the tube!

    The Series I 400i has normal 15" wheels, with XWXs as original equipment. For the Series II cars and the 412, the wheels were changed to TRX.
