Ferrari Mailing List: Re: No Longer Looking to Buy a Ferrari

[Hans E. Hansen (FList]

I want to double Dave's recommendation of Ted Rutland.  They
are not always the best source, but I check them first.  They have
damn near everything.

Also.....

Be sure to register with owners.ferrari.com
If you do, you'll have access to the vintage parts department,
which is in actuality the F. distributor in U.K.  Their inventory
is nothing short of awsome.  Prices are often reasonable, depending
upon exchange rate (the Pound is currently falling .vs. the US$, but
still very high.)
