Poor Ferrari Cab, at Jet Terminal

Is that a Mondial 3.2 ?

 

ok thats a Mondial T.

 

Cool shots!! Have any leaking problems with the top? If I stumbled across a Ferrari covered in snow at an airport parkinglot I would have a heart attack...but know that I would die happy

 

Foolish.....regardless of which ferrari, its sickening !!!
Should have his keys reverted !!! and not allowed to purchase another prancing horse.

 

If I saw an Fcar covered in snow, I would feel obligated to:
A) Go to Home Depot and buy tarps to cover it.
B) Give it a complimentary outer detail job.
C) Possibly find a car cover to fit it.
D) leaving a terse letter on parking a car in the snow

Shame to let a Ferrari go to waste. (((grinding my teeth)))

 

Just means that the car is well driven... People complaining that they would take the keys away is like complaining that the arizona snow will ruin your paint. Babies.

 

It's CAR!,meant to be used.it's got to be a great feeling coming in knowing that you have that waiting for you!crank her up turn the HEATER and WIPERS on and dry that piece of kinetic art home.

Oh yeah,I read somewhere a piece on Nick Mason and he was talking about taking the kids to school in the middle of a British winter and the cars he had at home refused to start except for one,so he drove them to school in the one that fired right up.....





his 250GTO.
Much respect Mr. Mason.

ooops, i meant DRIVE that piece of art home.

 

Big deal. Congrats to the owner who isn't afraid to use their car. Besides, the Mondial t body would've been treated with anti-corrosion solutions while being built at the factory, so no problems with long-term use in these conditions.

 

Curious quote. What punishment would you suggest for those Fcar owners who never drive their cars, letting time and the lack of use take their toll?

 

Dave, it's fantastic to see these cars used properly, keep up the good work

 

I would be more concerned with water getting into the air intake. From what I seen first hand, 348 engines can be a pain in the arse. True, the owner should have covered it but maybe had to scramble to get to their flight. Also, think about snowplow drivers at the airport, I'm some have hit a couple of cars. Won't they a have a nice holiday suprise when they return? Count on it!

 

Hey, Big Red, You can have my Ferrari's keys when you pry them from my cold , dead hand . Oh, don't forget to wax it every day, put it on jackstands to take the load off the tires and change the cam belts every six months or 200 miles, whichever comes first.

Hey Dave!

Great to see that you actually use the car for what it was meant and don't belong to the "Mommy! The Italian thinghy got cold! BLEEEEEEEEEEEEHHHHHHHH!" brigade (not trying to insult anyone).

More cars have rotted away from humidity trapped under tarpaulins than from being driven.

Congrats!

250GTO's have been raced in the snow. I've driven 308's,TR's,275GTB's,Maser's, GT40's in the snow. Sickening? People who don't drive them are Sickening to me.

 

I don't think there is "right" or "wrong" decision in this, I think.

When you buy such a car, you normally don't buy it as means of economical transportation.

Any special cars that I bought in my life, were economically written off by me in my mind, i.e. I never intend to sell them again but cherish them in a way they deserve, even if they rot away.

Sad to see the Ferrari buried in the snow. Next it will probally be parked next to a Tempo or something on a cheap used car lot with those colourful flags everywhere with a "Air Con" sign on it's front windshield.

Maybe a carpenter will buy it so he can load lumber in it with the top down.

There's an sera blue/tan '89 t Cab in Southern California that's used as a 'ranch' car (yes kids, on a real ranch).
