Hey Friends,

I hope to get the new battery put in the Testarossa today, in advance of 3
days of rain. Unlike in a Mondial, where it is a real bitch to get the
battery out/in through the wheelwell, the Testarossa and 308GTB batteries
are down in holes - but you know that. I have fought that fight before and
hate it. Yesterday I bought a battery lifting tool so the battery R&R on the
TR may be a little easier this time.

Sorry. Just thought I should offer an ON TOPIC post, perhaps to atone.

Ahhhhh yesh Rick and well put.  It may have already started with small

block Chevy transplants into XKE Jaguar's.

Trouble is - EPA.  In Kalifornia it damndably neigh impossible to legally

modify one of the newer beasts and still live in what Kalifornia calls the

emission smog check program.

Hi Carl

Nice to hear from you.

Chassis 14302.

Final bit of bargaining going on, but vendor is going away for a week, so

hopefully on his return.

Francis,

Congratulations, that is such fabulous news, you will love that car!  Of

course, I'll ask the chassis number ;)  It hardly seems almost 6 years

since we met at Goodwood but hopefully I'll be over your way soonish and

can see the car for myself.

I wish you all the best with your Ferrari journey.

Carl.

Hi Rick

I'll send you some pics later.

RHD. Blue dino metallica is original colour. Interior is crema, was

beige originally. I have the complete history. Engine rebuilt in 99.

Mechanically I think it is sound. Some bodywork issues but I have had

it fully inspected and know what to expect.

Now has 16 inch Speedline 5 spoke wheels. would have been nice to have

had original 14 inch, and I have the possibility to buy some but the tyres

are exhorbitant and 'I'm told it handles better aand actually I think it

looks better on these anyway so not too bothered. Smaller steering wheel,

but right style and looks good and original steering wheel comes with it.

Has electronic ignition, refurbed distributor and new HT leads

recently.

Looked after (and has lived at) for over 10 years by a local Indie

highly reputed Ferrari race shop.

More soon.

Francis

A little OT but speaking of Testarossa, I saw a picture of a new
Lamborghini Aventador Roadster with matte black bottoms like the TR.....

Even thicker than the TR....I'd say it was several inches thick!

Interesting stuff.....

The black valence and spoiler edge on the early TR was excellent for the
design.

I am not sure why painting it body color was so popular?

I've heard that is why the turbine cars were "discouraged"
from further competition at Indy.....

Likewise. I think it contributes to making the 512TRs look heavier and
fatter than they are.
