old pictures of Dino

I knew I'd seen this car somewhere on F Chat before. These photo's were posted in the UK section by member Chris Sherwood. The car was owned by his father when this photoshoot was taken in Bromsgrove in 1976.

I’m guessing 1974 IAA? The 308 GT4’s have the Dino badge and the 246GTS’s have the late bumpers and parallel wipers.

 

1973. The IAA in Frankfurt took place every odd year and 1971 it was cancelled by the organizer for economical reasons.

 

OK, I'll bite. How did a refrigerator get dropped on that Dino? I've had mine for 36 years and have still not managed to do so.

 

Recounted by the previous owner - the fridge rolled out of the back of a removal van; as fridge magnets go, this has to be amongst the more exotic...

 

Anybody else remember the days of $8000 Dino 246 driver cars? Mine (02984) was only $10,600 in 1975 with some 17,000 miles.
