Beautiful
Do you think that is factory or resostored???

I ask because on the undercarriage it looks black then a few inches up it goes to body color.

I am cleaning up my undercarriage on my "S" and am thinking of having the complete tub bottom, wheel housing ect... all color coded with the body color.
Would this have a pretty original look???

Most likely restored. On my RS the oil lines were not painted.

That is definately at the Rose Bowl, looks like course two Brookside hole number 10 or course one hole number 13. Anyways I wanted to go to this show, supposedly lots of ferraris, a friend of mine was showing his shelby mustang one of two cars built by shelby with steel sidebodies in red, pretty neat car.

Thirty bucks to get in was a bit steep so I went to work and watched ALMS and champ car and got paid. Looks like it must've been a good time and good thing it didnt rain.

In the full-resolution image, it clearly says 'FRAM.' I'm impressed Wil was able to spot that.

#232 is Mark Powell's old car. It was restored both by Jim Newton and Chris O'Donnel. One of the cleanest '73 RS in existence - former Mahnhattan trophy winner.
