Ferrari Mailing List: Re: 400i's original owner gets in touch

[Hans E. Hansen (FList]

I've been fortunate to be in frequent contact with my car's only other owner.
He's supplied me with much info.  He bought it in Hawaii and traded in
a P-Bug. Drove it often for just a couple of years, then basically put it
in storage - but kept it serviced regularly.  Oil changes every 6 months,
hoses, belts, yada.  It only had 14,000 on it when I got it.

Seems many of the older cars were painted on a whim.  Mine was
red/black "boxer" paint, but he didn't like the black bottom.  Made it
solid red, but many years later replaced the black to hide some
road rash.
