You are right, it certainly is some story. So many "owners" and only one car. It is indeed interesting to read about long lost rare models that were purchased at the time for a song as no one appreciated them, then many years later they re-surface and sell at some unbelievable ammount.

I read of a similar story where one of the original (six?) lightweight body factory racing E-type Jaguars ended up in the U.S. and was traded around different owners and eventually ended up in a used car lot (California?) and sold for $8,000 to a retired WW2 fighter pilot. He only drove it for a year or so then put it into storage. It was only several years ago when his heirs wondered just what the "old car" in the storage shed was worth, that it was found to be one of the lost lightweights. It went to auction and was purchased by English buyer for $5 million.

(What about a Ferrari GTO z conversion, lots of those about)

The big reason is just that.

Aswell Ferrari has made it SO HARD Too get parts. emblems and so on.

I had A dino rep. I was doing in vegas. I wanted ta get some real Ferrari parts. The first thing asked @ the Ferrari dealership was (" Whats the vin# of the car these parts are going on")

Give A real vin# for A Ferrari or go away. :sleepy:

So I sold it.

I will forward those links too its new owner. I couldnt find anyone that had the real thing. That they would part with.

As far as I know he's still looking.

Thanks.

The Kit car accessories are genuine Ferrari badges, I do agree with you that Ferrari does not like people ripping of their cars and usually takes legal action on anyone selling replications of their cars.
