Thank you so much for your hands on experience driving the 275 GTB. My first car was a 1961 Alfa Romeo 1600 Sprint, and yes the brakes were weak, and oversteer is an understatement. I then bought a 1953 Aston Martin, sans engine or transmission and installed a 351 Ford Cleveland with 4 speed top loader. Steering and handling were supperb, forget the brakes, good for only one attempt to stop at high speed, you steered those cars with your gas pedel. Acceleration "Forget about it" A little of my first experience  with sports cars that I had and survived.

I can't take credit for driving a 275.....that goes to Scottie my friend.

Those are some cool starter cars for sure!
