What is special about that ECU and setup?
Sent from my ATT Bell Rotary Dial Phone Oh here is one for the list If your own a 550/575 and blow the air bag The car is totaled Because there are NO AIR BAG ECU's available anywhere ! In victory you deserve Champagne In defeat you need it!
Scars are Tattoos with better stories !
If you follow all the rules You miss all the fun!
If you have no enemies, you have no character !

Ah, “there will be too many”.Yep, that’s the problem, they made too many of them. The question is how proprietary are the bits that go on a Ferrari compared to the rest of Magnetti Marelli and Bosch bits? I think it is going to be a bigger challenge than most think. Especially if someone is trying to bring one back from the dead.Let’s face it, there are F40s out there that are not running because of electrical component availability. If someone hasn’t reversed engineered bits for a $1 Mio + car yet, do you think that 360s are going to turn into parts cars?If I can pull off getting a ninth/tenth car without my wife buying a wood chipper, it will be earlier than what I have today. Likely something that has decent spares availability. ErikOn Mar 22, 2016, at 12:08 AM, Peter Rychel <dino308gt4 [at] hotmail.com> wrote:

The whole electronics thing, I think, will be worked around.
There are a number of stand-alone, DIY engine management systems available today that can plug-N-play with a lot of OEM sensors and can drive variable valve timing, etc.
Where there's a will, there will be a way. There'll be too many of these great cars laying around, that someone out there will reverse-engineer ECUs to make them work again.
Major metropolises will enforce electric only, but I see it limited only to core city centers. (Physically) bigger countries can't be entirely electric. Also, all of those new electric cars will need to be charged... With existing, aging infrastructure. We're putting more demands on the electric grid now, so how are we going to put more on it in the future? Unless, there are MASSIVE upgrades, I don't see it taking off too soon.
I don't think it will be as dire as most people predict.
At 39, I've got time on my side that I think a lot of the great cars that slipped through my hands recently, will come back again :)

True true, Erik
What with modern cars requiring $40,000 in electronic testing equipment – AND the know how to use and diagnose let alone repair – I fear the brink is sometime in late 80’s to early 90’s. Then the hot set up will be Chevy crate motor adapted to an F360 - - - alas.

30 years from now, most of the “expensive” cars from the 60’s will come back to reality, those that remember them in the day and lusted after them will be dead. Look what happened to brass era cars. Even pre-war cars have a very limited following, unless they still have a standing class at major concours events.
