We have made a lot of progress getting this to be a running car. I sourced the engine from the Netherlands, it’s a 2.0 L from a Fiat Dino as I wanted this car to be drivable on the street and i needed a longitudinal installation. I had a new winshield made and had wheels made. The biggest challenge right now it getting the gear shift which I had made to look like original operate with the ZF gearbox. As soon as this is solved we can move on to completion.

Another new project for myself
04022 has arrived at my Spicewood, TX shop. I bought it from someone that’s owned it for 35 years and has been sitting for 15 years. The owner had a license plate “NO WIFE” but later got married and he changed it to “NOT HERS”. This is a 72 GT with original Blue Scuro with tan interior. It’s a euro model. I plan to do a full restoration on it.
Dino 246 USA Prototype
A new project for my new shop in Spicewood, TX. This is the prototype for the USA model and was the first one imported. I’ll be doing a full restoration starting soon. Notice the odd indicator lights Ferrari used to federalize the car.
