    Is there a functional window that you can open in order to use the drive thru?

    Great shot.

    Yes, great picture, BIRA. You could keep your Big Mac and Fries hot until you got home by placing them over the water and oil lines in the cockpit. :)

    PAUL - I would never presume to say I could positively identify any vintage Ferrari color but my car was painted a similar shade and I had always believed it to be Amaranto Ferrari, paint code 20-R-188. This is an original 275 GTB color from Scaglietti's 10/66 Ferrari paint chips booklet. The tricky part will be to find a formula using modern paints to match that color code. Regards, Dave B.

    Here's my daily contribution.
    Waiting to unload from the motor-rail in Alessandria, northern Italy, heading for Florence.

    And Paul B, clearly the 275 is a very dark red....I hope that helps?

    Yes, the front half of the Plexiglas window slides rearward allowing an opening. The bigger problem is that most LMs are right hand drive, so the passenger has to place the order at the speaker box....that is if one can even hear them ask you to order!

    That is pretty cool. Lets hope its a steel car and not a competition version and that the car wash system was not too cheap (unlikely) ;)

    This plate is a dealer plate belonging to Carlo Perego (Ferro Rosso) and has been used on MANY different SWBs (real and not-so-real) that have passed through his hands.

    This photo was taken by Bert in 1997, so it is some car that Perego had at that time.
