This is a Ferrari 308 that has been modified to a 288 gto rebody.  I bought this car from an auction and the previous owners name listed on the title is Robert Norwood.  This car was owned by Bob Norwood.  If you know about Ferraris you probably have heard of him, if not do some research on the web.  He builds and mods Ferraris and has been doing it for years and has had cars in and on the cover of road and track, motor trend, and car and driver along with other magazines.  He holds many Ferrari records on speed and is known for building super nice Ferraris from the ground up.  I have seen GTO rebodies bring a lot of money here on ebay but the difference is Bob Norwood had the real 288 Gto parts that he used on many of his if not all so he was building as close to a real 288 gto as possible.  By the way factory built 288 gtos are selling for up to 1 million dollars at the moment and only 272 were built so this is as close as it gets.  If you notice this one has fuel doors on each side which is only on the 288 gtos.  Most rebody cars have only drivers fuel door and nothing on passenger side.  This car has some missing parts like motor, trans, center console, speedometer, cluster, bumper parts, rear window, rear engine hatch, stuff like that.  This car is a rolling chassis with no motor or trans.  It has the 17 inch wheels with 17x13 in rear with Michelin Pilot 335 tires on rear.  Some pics show the passenger Ferrari shield on the fender but it is now missing because someone wanted a souvenir and stole it.  Door latches don't work so there is a cable to open them for right now.  Car has radiator in front and wiring harness parts sitting inside engine bay.  The car has some nicks and paint chips around it here and there probably from sitting around at an auction.  The passenger door upper front edge has a split in fiberglass.  I took a pic.  Car has no keys so they are missing also.  Please look close at pics and let me know if I can answer anything else for you.  Cash only.  I cannot release the car or title until cash in hand or either the check or wire has cleared.  My bank puts hold on out of town checks even if they are cashier so just letting you know I must have the cash in my hand before releasing car.  Choose your motor you want to install and have a rare collector car. This Ferrari is being sold as-is with no warranty or guarantee. I already have offers of more than the starting price so it is not going to get any cheaper but if the offer is right I may be ending the auction early.  Thanks and good luck bidding

Shell Ultimate Automotive Enthusiast contest returns to send winner to Barrett-Jackson and Maranello

Wed, 14 Aug 2013

The first Shell V-Power Ultimate Enthusiast contest was held last year and sent finalists to a VIP experience at the Barrett-Jackson auction in Scottsdale, while the grand prize winner went to Maranello, Italy for some intimate time with Ferrari. The Dutch member of the seven sisters is doing it again this year: from now until September 17 anyone who wants a chance to live the same adventure can submit stories and photos that prove why they're the ultimate enthusiast.
Among the judging panel will be Roger Penske, Craig Jackson of Barrett-Jackson, drag racer Don Prudhomme, Tony Marini of Hot August Nights, Car and Driver chief Eddie Alterman, Road & Track honcho Larry Webster and last year's contest winner Harold Craige (pictured above with his wife at Fiorano).
Anyone in the US is welcome to submit. Three finalists will be flown to Scottsdale for a three-day VIP tour of Barrett-Jackson's January action, and they'll get a year's worth of V-Power premium gasoline. The grand prize winner will be announced in Arizona, and that person will get a week in Italy to explore the Ferrari factory complex and drive one of the company cars on the Fiorano track. Having been to the Maranello factory ourselves, we can attest that it's a bucket-list item for anyone who truly digs cars.

Infographic: Comparing the Veneno, LaFerrari and P1 supercars

Sat, 16 Mar 2013

This year's Geneva Motor Show served as the launch platform for three of the world's latest and greatest supercars. The Italians brought us the Lamborghini Veneno and the Ferrari LaFerrari, while the British unveiled the production version of the McLaren P1.
To put the three in better perspective - as if any of us will ever fully comprehend trio of million dollar coupes - the Aussies at Motoring.com built an infographic (click above to enlarge) that outlines what makes each of these cars so spectacular. Using unique colors to represent each of the vehicles, the team put together a variety of charts that focus on vital statistics, pricing, total production run and other parameters all designed to ease the process of digesting an overabundance of exotic goodness. We have uploaded the graphic full size in this link.

First Ferrari 458 Speciale A sells for $900k in Beverly Hills

Mon, 13 Oct 2014

The prospect of buying a new Ferrari convertible is by no means an affordable one, but prices can vary greatly. The California T, for example, sells for under $200k. The 458 Spider fetches over $250k. The new F60 America is said to have sold out at around ten times that much. But what about the 458 Speciale A?
We may have yet to receive official pricing, but one customer has paid a whopping $900,000 for the privilege of owning the very first one. Ferrari 458 Speciale A #1/499 was auctioned off at Beverly Hills City Hall on the occasion of Ferrari's 60th anniversary in America. The event, where the F60 America was also unveiled, was held in the presence of Fiat chairman John Elkann, Fiat CEO and Ferrari chairman Sergio Marchionne, Ferrari CEO Amedeo Felisa and vice-chairman Piero Ferrari.
Proceeds from the sale will benefit the American chapter of Daybreak, an Italian charity that has worked for the past 25 years to cure rare genetic diseases. The high bid tops that which recently won the first Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat - another extreme eight-cylinder performance machine from Fiat Chrysler Automobiles - although the Challenger itself sells for far less than any Ferrari does.
