A little concerned about recent issue of Pano & the early cars for sale!
Most recent issue had 3-4 356's & no 912's! 914s were sparse too & most were DE or track cars. What's the thought? Are we becoming dinos too, just like the 356/912 people? Or, do we just not go to PCA these days? Like to hear your commennts. Pat |

Dinos? Yes we are. as in Ferrari Dino 246. When the Dino 246 debuted, badges as a Dino, wiht no prancing horse anywhere, the little Pinanfirina sports car was scorned by the Ferrari crowd. "Not a real Ferrari."
Now its an extremely desirable collector Ferrari, one of my favorites. A good example is worth $150k, way more than the Real Ferrari 308 of just a few years later, with similar coachwork. So, yes. the 914 is a Dino. Meant as a low price entry level sports car with solid engineering, now valued as a collector car, worth more than the later Porsches meant to replace it, such as 924 and 944. |
