    Nah PAP, he's new around here...reminds me of young member Zupra though, when he came in bouncing off the walls and the ceiling...ROTFLMAO!

    Search for Speedy's and Zupra's Cafe thread you'll see what I mean....Zupra was the one riding shotgun as the Enzo went past my 308GTB like we had a boat anchor dragging out back!

    Watch this...

    Ferrari lvr, how old are you?

    I have some old racing karts left over out back behind the barn...some need repair, but one is tuned up and ready to go!

    (note the lack of caps typing and word abbreviations, an indicator of constant Instant Messenger usage....I have two teens myself)

    A shame we lost the Cafe pics in the server crash there was some GOOD STUFF in there....

    Ok, ok! but my photo was in a '60 Alfa with a 1500cc four banger and 3.7" tread width tires. (o_v_o) - George

    - years ago I had my old 275 GTB/4 up to 250 kph and my 166MM up around 210 - 220 kph (estimate - no speedo).


    That is one FAST 550! not to mention the 356 kph!!!!!

    Isnt that a new record for an Enzo. Thought the fastest so far was 218.5MPH. Not entirely sure of conversions, but i thought it was 1 mile= 1.62Km....that would make 356km/h... 219.7mph. Did i mess up some where?

    Mine appear to be stainless, they are pretty shiny, do you have them? I have tried local vendors even metric only and gave up! They are just slightly rounded phillips head but contersunk into the grill.

    It'd be 16 total for both 1977 cars. Hardly worth bothering but my paint guys lost them and used the usual "off the floor" assortment! Arrgggh!

    Actually, one has later black anodized louvers, make it 8 shiny 8 black.
    Man, I need to go get that car from the barn!
    I need lots of 'bits' if you have good inventory....

    2 soft style windshield washer fluid bags
    2 sets brake and clutch rubber pedal covers
    RH Single window switch, plain black early style with square trim bezel

    That would make it enough for your bother in packaging...PM me your site info, of your shop...Thanks! Sorry for the hijack...cannot go fast with a dirty windshield! LOL!
