I guess I'll stick with the house and shy acre of land I paid less than a Ferrari engine for.

Veekry, is that the David Piper GTO in your painting on the wall that I can just see the nose?
Nice 512, is it yours? I had an 85 Testarossa for a short while many years ago, you know how it is, everyone wishes to own one at some time, just needed to get that urge out my system and buy one when they were relatively cheap cars. |

The poster is the car of which you speak.
(IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Ah,no,I am a mere mortal and admirer of Ferraris since about 1957. That was when I first saw a D-type in full song here in Ontario. BRG,fin,fast,westbound,sounded awesome,must have competed at Mosport or Watkins Glen. I have,in the '60-70s toiled on a DB4, and have attained intimate knowledge of whitworth threads. A machinist since '68,worked on spacecraft,undersea vessels and tools for heavy industry. Currently working on a 914 of a different style,for those poor rusted chassis' in fields. Hopefully the design will be recognizable as a 914,morphed into the '90s and contemporary times. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) / A former employer had an affinity for the Stallions,and I recall his black 512BB and later TR were glorious. We all inspected the cars as he changed them as often as seasons,a successful large machine co owner. He drove them daily,wore them out,tracked them.A popular pre-race to the Montreal F1 is the Ferrari Challenge on Isle Notre Dame. He's the one that does the hairpin right.
