I am selling a replica Ferrari Daytona Spyder. It is titled as a 1985
Cali, built on a 1979 Corvette donor. I bought this car to restore, but found another project I want to put my
time and efforts into more, so the Daytona has to go to next owner. This car runs and drives good. The previous
owner had used it very sparingly the last 5 years, just running it around the block to keep the fluids stirred. It
will need all the things associated with long storage(belts, all fluids changed, hoses, filters, etc). Still
drives surprising well though, I thought it would have all kinds of squeaks and rattles being a replica, but it
doesn't. Drives like a 70s Vette. The serial numbers on the engine pad are V05047ZAJ 195436030. The chassis and
frame are nice for the age, a little surface rust here and there, no rot, the section between the front a-frames
has evidence of it hitting a rock or two, but it's still fine. The body is in excellent shape, no cracks or
damage, no evidence of any wrecks or previous bodywork. The paint looks nice from 10 or 20 feet, still shiny. Get
up close and you can see plenty of touched up scratches and chips, so it could use paint if you feel like it. The
wheels are in good shape with no curb rash. The tires about 3 years old, have less than 100 miles on them. Battery
about 1 year old. The interior is fair, the seats do not have any rips or tears, the rest of the interior shows
wear and tear. It has a wood MOMO steerng wheel. Also tilt/telescopic steering column. The odometer shows 12,548
and stills turns, I assume it has rolled over and it's really 112K miles but who knows, shows exempt on title. The
A/C still works fine, blows cold. All the gauges work except the clock. Needs some little things like the horn
doesn't work, I see a little oil drip on my floor(not a huge amount), and one of the truck hinges needs repair(I
think the bolts are stripped out and the hinge is bent some), little things like this that you can fix as you're
driving and enjoying the car. The power windows go up and down fine, but sometimes you need to wiggle the switches
a little to get them to go, so it could use new switches. Oh and the top could use replacing, its brittle and
tearing around the bottom snaps. The headlight cover door system is there, but the vacuum hoses run to nowhere, I
don't think it was ever hooked up, so the covers lay flat to expose the headlights. I took a picture of them closed
so you can see what it looks like, I did it manually.

F1 teams to test titanium skid plates to reignite spark in series
Sun, 22 Jun 2014The 2014 Formula One season opened with one overwhelming complaint - the cars didn't sound right. It sapped the excitement, despite the fact that this season has seen a number of truly thrilling races (Bahrain, Spain and Montreal all come to mind). Attempts have been made to restore some of the audible thrill of the cars, although efforts have remained unsuccessful.
If F1 can't fix the sound of the cars, then other methods need to be considered to restore its self-perceived lack of excitement. One of those involves fitting titanium skid plates to the cars in a bid to reintroduce the sparks that were so prevalent in the sport's past.
Mercedes-AMG and Ferrari conducted initial experiments with the new skid plates during early practice sessions for the 2014 Austrian Grand Prix. Kimi Raikkonen and Nico Rosberg had the plates fitted to different locations of their cars, in a bid to see which created the most dramatic sparks. Considering the photos the tests, though, neither Mercedes' nor Ferrari's setup really seemed successful, which is why you're seeing Johnny Herbert and his 1989 Benneton B188 up top.
What next for Stefano Domenicali?
Tue, 29 Apr 2014Ferrari is a team that's used to being on top. It does, after all, have more world championships to its name - 15 drivers' titles and 16 constructors' - than any other team in the history of Formula One racing. But despite having some of the best drivers and resources at its disposal, it hasn't won a championship in over five years. Someone had to take the blame for that, and that someone turned out to be Stefano Domenicali.
The team principal who took over after Jean Todt stepped back to focus first on the running of the entire company and then the FIA, Domenicali has presided over the driest spell in the team's history since Michael Schumacher and Ross Brawn arrived in the late 90s to bring Ferrari back to its winning form. Whether that ultimately proves to have been Domenicali's fault or not, the buck stopped on his desk and he resigned a couple of weeks ago, making way for Ferrari's North American chief Marco Mattiacci to take the reins. At least for now, anyway, as rumors circulate of a longer-term solution that could bring Ross Brawn back into the fold following his recent departure from Mercedes.
The big question now, however, is what Domenicali will do next. The latest intel suggests that he could leave four wheels behind but stay in the field of competitive sports to coach an Italian basketball team. The rumors are fueled by reports that Domenicali has been in touch with Giovanni Petrucci, head of the Federazione Italiana Pallacanestro - Italy's national basketball federation. The organization runs two professional basketball leagues within Italy as well as its national team that's won eight international championships, two gold, four silver and four bronze medals in the European league and two silver medals in the Olympics.
Touring's rebodied Ferrari F12 Berlinetta Lusso leaks ahead of Geneva debut
Mon, Mar 2 2015The F12 Berlinetta is, in this writer's estimation, one of the best-looking Ferraris and among the most striking automobiles on the road. But its aggressive lines, even the most die-hard fan would have to admit, may not be to everyone's taste. Like that of the customer who likely commissioned Carrozzeria Touring Superleggera to rebody this particular example. Called the Berlinetta Lusso, this coachbuilt F12 recalls a time when the 250 GT – ostensibly the F12's progenitor – was offered in performance-focused SWB guise and as the more elegant Lusso model. It bears certain obvious links to the stock version – particularly the headlights and front air vents – but takes a decidedly more graceful approach that starts to remind us more of a two-seat version of the 612 Scaglietti, especially in that shade of blue and with those wheels. As these images just surfaced, we'll have to hold on for its official debut at the Geneva Motor Show this week to delve into the full details. But chances are that Touring didn't find it necessary to tinker much with the F12's 6.3-liter V12 and its 730 horsepower, much as it has apparently left the interior largely in tact.
