Update 12\/18\/12: \u00a0<\/strong>They always turn up again -this guy at F40 Motorsports<\/a>. \u00a0Price of $139,000 is feeling more and more like a sensible high for SS’s and likely the neighborhood they will come to rest in for a while -unless of notable heritage or otherwise interesting. \u00a0This car has few issues, and if red is you color a trip to Portland CT may be just the thing -though I think the leaves will all have fallen by now.<\/p>\n

Nicely turned out with Borrani’s. \u00a0Is it just me or are there a lot of wheel weights on that front wheel? \u00a0Aren’t the bent ones supposed to go on the back (or get fixed??)? \u00a0Panel fit is excellent. \u00a0It’s quite red!<\/strong><\/p>\n

Hole where ashtray belongs. \u00a0Good gray! \u00a0Wrong rear view mirror. \u00a0Still very very nice despite.<\/strong><\/p>\n

I’m sure George can find some things wrong here (and all you Georges are wondering if I’m referring to you). \u00a0Nicely done I say.<\/strong><\/p>\n

In the immortal words of Sir Mix-a-lot: “Baby got back!” \u00a0it’s weird, but I find myself wanting an SS less and less. \u00a0What do I prefer these days? \u00a0Dunno – maybe an Espada.<\/strong><\/p>\n

5\/28\/12: Giulietta Sprint Speciale 177251.<\/strong> Daron pointed out that this car was listed on the Dragone site<\/a> to be auctioned on May 19th and I spaced out and forgot to mention it.\u00a0 It’s Rufus’ fault.\u00a0 I looked through my files but didn’t see it for sale or owned by anyone.\u00a0 Anyone know whose car or what it sold for?\u00a0 What’s the story!\u00a0 Anyone here buy it?<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Looks like a nice example.\u00a0 Hood is ajar.\u00a0 Wipers are in the opposite orientation from Market 421 car.\u00a0 Looks like a Euro truck behind it.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Is that a Florence plate?\u00a0 Trunk badge is in a different place than usual or is that a reflection and it’s missing the trunk ‘bulls-eye’ badge?<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

They managed to get the door shut weather stripping to stay.\u00a0 No visors??<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Weird picture here.\u00a0 The steering wheel looks cartoonishly large.\u00a0 Seats appear to have the correct fabric covers -a rarity.\u00a0 Rear view mirror is the earlier Sprint type.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Interesting how ‘correct’ these cards are trying to be these days.\u00a0 Good thing there are a lot of Veloce parts floating around!\u00a0 There’s something weird going on with the lower edge of the deflector.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
