...more candy ...

I downloaded a few more pics from my iPhone for those of you that would like to see more of the collection ... The guy in some pics is my pal Scott ... He fixes the stuff I break ... The barn at his house is where many of the cars sleep ... The last pic is of my house ... Just to end speculation ... In the barn you'll see the 67 tr4a , the orange 914 , the natty Boh jeepster and a 42 army jeep , in my garage you see the 97 ferrari 550 maranello , the 04 gt3, the maserati gt coupe and the 78 911sc / RS ...there's shots of the 90 348ts ... There's more and they all have interesting stories ... Let me know which ones you'd like to hear about ... Phil

Tell me what you think about the F-car! Recently, I nearly pulled the trigger on an F355, but it was a Spider and I prefer the Berlinetta. I think I'm gonna hold out for a 360 as I like the access panel, which negates the need for the engine out service on the timing belts, as in the 355 and the 348.

Army Jeep is my favorite! I've had a '41 and a '45. Didn't know it until it was sold, but the '41 was one of the PROTOTYPES the army used in testing. Yeah... wish I had that one back.

Ferraris ... And more

The answer is odd ... The 348 was the last of the Enzo era cars and last without power assisted steering ... They've not been loved but I really enjoy it and think it looks great w 360 wheels ... It's a baby testa rosa of course ... Not as fast as your 355 and probably not as pretty ... The 550 maranello is wonderful ... Last of the front engine v12 manual gear box Ferraris ... GT car ... 199 top speed ... But the car that you're considering is really represented in my collection closely by the Maserati GT coupe ... These were the same running gear as the ferrari 360 ... As ferrari bought maserati a few years earlier ... They weren't great w stock wheels and cambiacorsa slush boxes but mine is one of 91 in this country w a manual 6 speed box and PO put great custom wheels on it ... And a caprisio (sp?) exhaust ... So it basically a 360 modena in a different dress ...

Sweet collection. I really like the 348's too, I've been spending a bit too much time looking at ads lately. Seems like they might start climbing in value pretty soon too, or maybe already are. More pics of that??
