Ferrari Mailing List: Re: Thanks to everyone for all the help

[Robert W. Garven Jr. (rgarven]

Supposedly my sign is from the original NY dealership, at least that was the story and I paid allot of money 20 years ago for it!

Th back is made up of hundreds of pieces welded togethr almost as if it was used for training new welders, the r is also a bit crooked. I bought it from Tony Singer who had an F2 car.

We're talking about a loosely-organized private racing team - you'd have better luck asking former team members/mechanics what beer they drank on October 19th, thirty years ago, if you could get some sit-down time with surviving members to remember the Glory Days.  Francois Sicard and David Castelhano were names of guys who turned wrenches for NART and Chinetti Sr.  I knew David C. - he had an original NART badge, personally given to him by Chinetti Sr. bolted to the side of his rolling tool cabinet.

Wikipaedia probably knows as much as most... 

There have been articles about the street NARTs from time to time - a father and son drove one from NY (?) to Daytona and wrote an article for R&T  - the father had bought the car new iirc - a 275GTB converted to a roadster.   NART's were raced at various sports car venue's over the years ll over the world. 

see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/North_American_Racing_Team for more....

Hi Guys,

 

Thanks to everyone who answered my call for help. I had a ton of emails and really appreciate it. I think I have most of what I need for the Revival.

 

Just curious, there are a number of different versions of the NART badge. Does anyone know the dates they were used, are all correct styles and did they change the badge at different races depending on who painted the car? I don't recall this ever being discussed on the List. Does anyone know much about NART?

 

 

Or you have a different style as seen here

http://www.isaydingdong.co.uk/ourshop/prod_1709468-NART-Ferrari-North-American-Racing-Team-Sticker-3-or-4.html

 

the flag at the top is different.

 

There is also a version without the Flag at all and instead of NART on the bottome it is mostly yellow and says North American Racing Team.

 

Just wondering of anybody knows of any rhyme or reason as to the order. Somewhere on ferrari chat I saw a reference to this but don't know if it was true or not...

 

Thanks again.

 

Britt
