002C is the third Ferrari built. First one sold. First major race winner. Turin Grand Prix/Raymond Sommers. Began as a 159 bored out to a 166 by Ferrari. Oldest existing Ferrari (orignial chassis/engine) Heading for a 100 mile drive today to shoot some photos for Vintage MotorSports. Going to bundle up...

Hi

That's my Stutz DV 32. Interestingly Stutz's just like that raced at Le Mans in 32. Back then they were required to run top up for 4 hours/top down for 4. (Hood up to you).
Straight 8, 4 valve heads pretty trick.

This is my Dusenberg, ex Queen Marie Franay bodied.

Best

You Sir are a man of impeccable taste - I had suspected as much before, but that last picture just confirmed it!

Well done.

Tony was you there when these photo's were taken? If so can you tell me what the nose bag on the yellow car was for, was he worried about boulder chips that the beast could throw up? laugh

Hi Tony,

Yeah my grandparents brought one back from the states in the 90's and put in on there Nissan people carrier which was a dark colour. Doesnt look so good on a yellow sports car mind.

Hope your well and the cs is going good.

Truely stunning car.
How did it compare to the enzo in the wind tunnel? and do you find the upper exhausts make the rear spoiler dirty?!

I'm just clicking the link and a seperate web page comes up saying "done" but it's blank - no vid starts up.

I believe I've got all the requisite media players installed. confused
