The prancing horse on the speedo kinda gives it away.

Juding by the fender line, I'm thinking 550 Maranello.

I thought I caught all the prancing horses, missed one.

Keep guessing, getting closer but no cigar just yet.

That expression would match 308, 328 or 348

You guys have been good about this game, so I'm taking it in for the last three yards.

1981 308 GTS-i, Targa Top, steel body on frame - not the fiberglass or aluminum body of other years. Mechanical fuel injection - not the best thing Bosh ever did.

The i,i,i was supposed to read like a stuttering hint - guess it backfired some.

Detail - I had thought this was a diagonal slash at one time, it's really an "i".
