Ferrari: Yet another Ferrari wet dream

Yes, major hack and whack. Was 0780 a TRI60 (the first TR with
independent rear suspension). Built using parts from the wrecked 0772.
Heavily modified to suit the 1962 "Experimental Class" for LeMans with
a lengthened Tipo 568 chassis and a 4 litre Tipo 163 Superamerica
engine. Renumbered 0808 classed TRI/330LM. Wrecked by Penske at LeMans
in 1963. Fitted with a Fantuzzi coupe body. Restored to LeMans style by
Pierre Bardinon in the 1970s. Bought in 2002 by Jim Spiro.
 

Too much information...

The catalogue for the 
snippy... 

Again, TMI.

Hate to reply to my own posts, but I forgot to include the new body for
LeMans 63. Much slimmer and not as tall as the 62 car. Also by Fantuzzi.

I've seen this car IRL. I visited the Bardinon collection (five Le Mans
winners!!!) in 2001. I remember this one, the design of which seemed a
bit odd to me, but, obviously, it's been heavily restored since. I'm not
fond of these restorations which make a car look newer and shinier than
it has ever been (especially race cars).

Indeed. I understand that owners want to make the road cars "better
than Enzo" but the race cars NEVER looked as good as they do now. Time
was that Penske set the standard (with cars like s/n 1040) and even that
level of preparation and presentation would be laughed off most concours
fields today.

But then again, I've been down this road before...

Thanks for the link, Nino! Great catalogue.
 

Oh, I'm on the better side: A friend of mine is a collector. Tomorrow we
will watch the F1 in his private cinema -- just beside his garage. There
are several Porsches (don't like them), a 330 GTS and a 330 GTC (my
favorite one). Both are born in '66 as his Sebring 3500 is. Whenever I
like, I may choose one for a ride ;-)

I'm new in this group and I'll have an eye on your postings.

cheers

All that is excellent, Hugo. Welcome! I sure wish I could buy that
catalogue, just for the look and feel of it. But, I have the .PDF file
and friends in California with bitchin' color printers. All I need to
bring is a ream of paper the next time I go up there. Or, I can just
look at it on my computer.

BTW - "Nino" is "The Dream" is "Michael Delaney" is "Lugo Abratte" is
plain old MC. I like to mix it up a bit. Would it be that the real
Nino Barlini could post here, but he is a figment of some screenwriter's
imagination.

P.S. Under the heading WHAT THE HELL?, I just noticed that some place
called www.autoforumz.com archives this newsgroup! I suppose it's
legal, but WTF? Shouldn't we be entitled to some type of royalty,
damnit? I need to put some gas in the shitwagon. Maybe I should have a
straight talk with these bastards (I guess I just did - no offense,
guys, just pay up or I'll kill you all!) If you've been peeping on us
this whole time you know my prowess with a knife (or mostly my mouth -
if straight up profanity or evil threats of doom don't do it or even
halitosis, then out comes the blade).

It's a place where you will learn
To face your fears, retrace the years
And ride the whims of your mind
Commanding in another world
Suddenly, you hear and see
This magic new dimension

Mine arrived today. It's really lovely quality. I've put the used
