I heard a rumor that Penske sold off lots of the old stuff and even had some scrapped and Ferrari was mad at him. I expect some will be showing up in the US????

SO, if we were to, um, need some 'exotic' parts for, say, a 308
engine rebuild or somesuch, somebody knows somebody in Maranello who can
get pretty much ANYTHING we need, F-car parts-wise?
Do tell more.....

Flavio is no
longer there J Claudio is
the man….
I believe
that all their old stuff was packed up and sent to MarCon in the UK .
I don’t think they had a choice in the matter although I would be
happy to be corrected. As for newer parts, well, they are pretty close
to the source so things arrive pretty quickly J

Re: [Ferrari] Factory Tour
>>Hans sez - "
Modena 's Ferrari dealership's parts department apparently isn't what
it once was. I was advised to go there too, but found a facility
that had recently been severely downsized."
Hmmm, well, that explains
why my pal Flavio hasn't returned my emails.
I think it's right across
the street from the Porsche dealership - well, concessionaria. And oh yeah, a buffet. Point
and grunt and at the cashier pull out a bunch of money and let them
pick what they need.
BUT the factory restaurant
in '79 - Yeah - the Cavalino - When Tibor and I were there in
August '79, it was a Pizzeria. I took pictures in there
too. Cute place - all the stools slip into a rail under the
tables enabling the brooms to zip zip zip.
We ate there when the
guard at the empty factory hand signed and somehow got it across to us
that someone would be back at 1:00 who could speak English - long
story short - we got a tour from a guy in an Armani kinda suit named
Pierro.
I gotta find his name -
can't be THE Pierro but I do have some pics - hey, Pierro has gotta be
a popular name, eh?
Waiting room was one F1
car sized with yellow checker board tiles with alternating prancing
horse and plain yellow tiles. On one side of the single F1
Ferrari was 12 and on the other 11. Jody's name on one side
& Giles on the other. Hey, save space, eh? heh
