Wish I was born in the same era you dudes were!
I'm just an old fart and have no idea of what

> ok guys, i always lurk, but rarely ever post at least for the past several years. so is this the 512TR market now? Clyde? this is a Sheehan car and he's never bashful about his pricing. Ferrari 512 TR s/n 90817 is priced very right in today's fast-moving market at $295,500 or best offer. 2 owners. same owner for past 23 years. 23k miles. BTW, I have no interest in this car and am very happy still driving my Fiat Dino Spider 2400. Just curious. I guess i better go check the AZ auction results.
