Ferrari Mailing List: Re: Along time ago - at Symbolic Motor Cars - Ferrari 003

[Hans E. Hansen (FList]

Yes, no question that Jim's car was numbered as 004C....  I have
bunches of photos of Jim's scrap book and bits and pieces he had.  But
it was the pre-digital days (for me..), and I would have to dig around
a lot to find them.

Doug:  I'm wondering if the car you and Bill saw at Symbolic was the
#002/Glickenhaus car during it's restoration.  Perhaps Brian can shed
some light on this.

Hans.
