Steve Fichter Posted July 20, 2008 Share Posted July 20, 2008 Well kind of anyway. At least for the lineup for the track tour at Elkhart Lake, my Seven was a "nose" ahead of this gorgeous Ferrari. Not an affectionado so couldn't tell you the model Ferrari but I could tell is was mucho expensive. And I did get a nice complement from the driver about my Seven. Nice guy! Track photos of my car at speed due to show up soon on the internet. I'll post a link when they're available. Cheers!

slngsht Posted July 20, 2008 Share Posted July 20, 2008 Looks like a late 60's Dino Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

11Budlite Posted July 21, 2008 Share Posted July 21, 2008 "Looks like a late 60's Dino" - I'm not familiar with that model, but I think being front engined it'd be from the late 50's. Looking good Steve! Bruce :7drive: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kitcat Posted July 21, 2008 Share Posted July 21, 2008 Looks like a late 50's Testa Rosa 250. It has knock-off wire wheels wh/were the style back then. If so, it's worth around $5-6M. A '62 just sold for $10.5M! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slngsht Posted July 21, 2008 Share Posted July 21, 2008 heh, I just googled Dino, and this looks nothing like the Dino :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnCh Posted July 21, 2008 Share Posted July 21, 2008 That is a Ferrari TR60. Phil Hill won Le Mans in TR60 #9, so assuming that number on the hood isn't just a tribute, that is a very special car! -John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pksurveyor Posted July 21, 2008 Share Posted July 21, 2008 The September editon of Hemmings Sports & Exotic Car just arrived in today's mail. The cover page car is an almost identical Ferrari Testarossa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S1Steve Posted July 22, 2008 Share Posted July 22, 2008 1959 Ferrari 196S,It may be a replica ?, Thats OK I'll still take one in Fly Yellow. Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnCh Posted July 22, 2008 Share Posted July 22, 2008 I think I was wrong and Steve is right, Dino 196S. The car is left hand drive, and I seem to recall that all the TR59/60s were right hand drive (of course Ferrari of that era was anything but consistent). The dead give-away of course is the number of velocity stacks showing through the hood scoop. Do you recall if it was 6 or 12? -John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slngsht Posted July 22, 2008 Share Posted July 22, 2008 Heh, I knew for some reason "Dino" popped in my head :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S1Steve Posted July 22, 2008 Share Posted July 22, 2008 196s, sometimes there is Dino after. V6, three made , two survive, Big Bucks. While looking for info on a 196, seems someone made 27 or so copys, Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevet Posted July 24, 2008 Share Posted July 24, 2008 I would put serious money on that being a replica. There are some amazing Ferrari replicas out there, some of them even officially sanctioned by the factory, like this one here that belongs to a mate of mine in England - has full FIA racing papers from 1964. http://www.usa7s.com/aspnetforum/upload/1862374532_suggies GTO.JPG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
