    Found an article about the #1 Ferrari 288 GTO who has front and back bumpers in red and the front border window is black.

    It's quite strange but I would like to know if this car still exists? Pictures, owner information would be great.

    Hope this is not a repost btw..

    Note also the box like raised cover on the rear deck above the engine. That feature was later dropped. The yellow stripe around the beltline was another early 288 feature. One early GTO (Swiss show car) was converted to the evo version?
    Was the article in Hors Linge?
    The Geneva GTO had strange Goodyear tires with the word 'Goodyear' outlined in white and printed upside down on the tire. It also featured the red inserts on the seats. The front and rear bumpers were the conventional black color.

    thanks for the info.

    This article is in the first book of a Ferrari 1/43 collection in France. If I find a scanner I will try to add some pictures of it.
