NOW the car is ready: I finally installed the Glidden Salchi paint sticker!

And put in the trunk of of the just 15 early model Schedoni sets ever produced: that's the same as the famous "gift" one.

Now I can go to the "Concorso di Eleganza" next saturday: I'm wondering if the judges know what that precious set is and if maybe it would be better to put in the trunk the "usual" well known luggage set. What's your opinion about that?

Thanks! I tried and already sent the explanation of what it is, but I'm confident that they will lose it before seeing the car in person…

Stelle sul Liston Elegance contest, Padova, Italy, October 13, 2018. Three blue cars aside. Left: Tonino Lamborghini personal Espada. Mid: my last but one drysump. Right: a Jaguar XJ220 owned by a friend of the former Italian prime minister Silvio Berlusconi

Yes, Mike: it was a judgement show. But my category was won by the XJ220 (a more important car, yes, but I consider my one more elegant than that): judges award which they want…

Do you mean that I'm not a friend of the former Italian Prime Minister? (but I have to say that the XJ 220 displayed was a perfect condtions car)

You can see also the personal Tonino Lamborghini Espada and the best in show, a Delahaye from 1938, perfectly restored.

Thanks, Mike. If it had been a point concourse maybe I would have won the best in show, but it wasn't: here judges have others criteria. They dedice to give an award to the car they like more using criteria like the car importance, value and so on, not only if it's perfect.

resurrecting this thread: did 308 GTB 34503 appear anywhere? My 308 GTB drysump 34465 is the last but one ever produced, but Ferrari claims there is another, 34503, the last 308 GTB produced: where is it? I got my car eight years ago, in 2014: how is it possible that nobody still knows where 34503 is? Does this car exhist? Is it a drysump or a wetsump? Yes, you are right : I would be very happy to learn that my one is the last dry sump exhisting on Earth as 34503 was kidnapped by the aliens,..

Seriously: any new about 34503?

Thank you!
