    I'll be in Manhatten 6/22 thru Friday 6/24 and will have some time to spare. Is there anything in Manhatten or close by of particular interest to a Ferrari Nut especially 1960's thru 1980's cars? Garages, Restoration shops or showrooms featuring older models etc.

    New Ferrari show room on Park Avenue. Other than that, buy a Fodor's or Frommer's. And Zagat for restaurant ratings.

    The original Luigi Chinetti Motors, Inc. is located at 780 Eleventh Avenue (between 54th and 55th), I don't know if the painted sign is still visible.

    It's worth making a trip out to Classic Coach in Elizabeth, NJ...(1007 S. Elmora Ave, Elizabeth, NJ). The owner is a guy named Frank Triarsi, and they are very welcoming of fellow ferrari fans. And there are ALWAYS some interesting cars in the shop. Make sure you check out upstairs, too....

    MoMA has an older Ferrari on display most of the time, though I don't remember which one.

    if you are renting a car Wide world of cars is about 45 minute drive away.

    Other than that, I can't think of anything other than what the other guys said.

    When you come to Southern California I owe you all a heads up on the same. You might look at Southern California section of F Chat at Chrystal Cove each week, it will blow your minds ! Every time you think you have seen everything,something shows up to top it.
