1986 Ferrari Mondial Cabriolet on 2040-cars
Saint Paul, Minnesota, United States
Feel free to email: mayamdderck@charltonfans.com .
For sale is my 1986 Ferrari Mondial 3.2. Red on tan leather. The car has about 21,500 original miles. I purchased
it a year ago from a noted collector in the Pittsburgh area. His personal mechanic maintained it very well, along
with the rest of his phenomenal collection. I have maintenance records from his years of ownership and mine. Mechanicals. The car is mechanically excellent. The engine starts easily every time. It runs very strongly and revs
smoothly. Excellent compression (as tested last fall -- those are the photos with the spark leads detached. Note
how clean the engine is. That is its natural state. It does not use or leak oil.)
The transmission is perfect. It slots into all gears (including first-to-second) whether warm or cold. The belt
service is current and has had only a few thousand miles. The brakes are excellent. The suspension is good and not
squeaky. I am aware of no current mechanical issues.
Wheels and Tires. The car comes with two complete sets of wheels and tires -- the original metric set (for shows,
with factory original tires) and a second set (which I run on the car, with easier-to-source tires). Both are
Ferrari Mondial OEM wheels (the non-metrics are from a later year). The wheels are in excellent condition. If I
were to keep the car, I would consider replacing the daily-use tires in the spring.
Body. The body is in excellent condition. I believe the paint work is all original, and it is in fine condition.
Cabriolet Top. The top is in very good condition. No rips or wrinkles on the exterior, and the fabric is taut. It
opens and closes easily. The rear window is very slightly yellowed, but you can see through it easily. The inside
of the top has light wear at a few points where the beige fabric contacts the mechanical apparatus. It closes well.
I have the original cover for the top as well as an aftermarket leather top (both fit well, but the original covers
are very costly, so I do not use it). The rubber weather stripping between the front and rear windows (which are
designed to bend when the top goes up and down) are partially perished. They could use replacement.
Interior. The interior is in excellent condition, with no rips, tears, stains, or anything else. The leather has
almost no signs of wear. The carpet is very good.
Dash and Electrics. Everything works. All the buttons, lights, and signals work well. The windows go up and down
easily, although the rear windows are a bit slow and could do with re-lubrication. The air conditioning--a known
problem on these cars--works well in this vehicle. I have the CD player that came with the car (a Denon unit that
does not function). I replaced it recently with a nice Kenwood unit with Blue tooth, etc, which works well. The
radio antenna works well, although it makes some noise and could probably do with lubrication.
Accessories. I have the original leather binder with the original manual. I have both original sets of folding
keys. I have the original leather key fob that came with the car new (although it is not in perfect condition). I
have the original jack bag with all accessories (including the little canister with some original fuses and light
bulbs). I do not have the original tool roll. They can be sourced online.

Gary Cooper's 1935 Duesenberg SSJ fetches record price at Pebble Beach
Mon, Aug 27 2018The 1935 Duesenberg SSJ formerly owned by Gary Cooper sold for a jaw-dropping $22 million over the weekend at the Gooding & Co. Pebble Beach auction, setting a record for the most valuable pre-war car ever sold at auction. It also appears to have become the most expensive American collector car ever sold at auction, eclipsing the very first Shelby Cobra ever made, which sold for $13.75 million in 2016. The Duesenberg was also the lone American-made entrant in the list of top 10 sellers, which was crowded with the names Ferrari and Porsche. You have to go all the way down the list to No. 21 to find the next American car: a 1930 Packard 734 Speedster Phaeton, which sold for a mere $1.127 million. All told, Gooding & Co. said it realized more than $116.5 million in auction sales over the weekend, with a whopping 25 cars sold for north of $1 million, an 84 percent sales rate and an average transaction price of $947,174. Clearly this is how the other half 1 percent lives. Gooding & Co. said there were five world-record sales at the auction. Joining the Duesenberg were a 1955 Ferrari 500 Mondial Series II, which sold for $5.005 million; a 1958 Ferrari 250 GT Tour de France Berlinetta, $6.6 million; a 1967 Ferrari 330 GTC Speciale, $3.41 million; and a one-of-two 1966 Ferrari Dino Berlinetta GT, $3.08 million. Oh, and that 1969 Ford Bronco test vehicle we told you about? The one that was rebadged by Holman & Moody as a Bronco Hunter? It sold for $121,000, which was well below the expected range of $180,000 to $220,000. Perhaps it was the presence of all those gorgeous Porsche Spyders and Ferraris that meant collectors weren't interested in boxy, utilitarian off-roaders. View 24 Photos Gooding and Co. had expected the convertible Duesenberg coupe to go for more than $10 million. It was one of only two of its kind built by Duesenberg — the other having gone to Clark Gable — with a specially shortened, 125-inch wheelbase and a supercharged straight-eight with double overhead cams, able to produce around 400 horsepower and a top speed of 140 miles per hour. It features a lightweight open-roadster bobtail body produced by LaGrande out of Connersville, Ind. The car was also owned at one point by race driver Briggs Cunningham.
It took four minutes to steal Roger Waters' Ferrari
Sat, Nov 7 2015The owner of a 1973 Ferrari 365 Daytona in Australia is singing Wish You Were Here after thieves stole his red Italian coupe, which counts Pink Floyd lyricist Roger Waters as a former owner. The car was at a mechanic in Melbourne when the brazen crooks rammed open the shop's door in the early morning. They needed just four minutes to get away with the Daytona and a 328 GTB, according to The Drive. This Daytona carries an estimated value of 2.5 million Australian dollars ($1.8 million), and it counts a string of celebrity owners, according to The Age. James Hunt allegedly drove it because the coupe once had a connection to the Hesketh Formula One team. Waters used the car to go to Pink Floyd's recording studio, and magnate Mohamed Al Fayed later had the Ferrari also. He gave it to his son Dodi – Princess Diana's boyfriend when she died. The Daytona wasn't just another brick in the wall to the owner, either. "I don't have any other sport cars, that was the one," he said to The Age. The car just completed a restoration three weeks ago, and it was at the mechanic to sort an alternator problem. Police are still searching for the perpetrators. The 328 was reportedly spotted about 4 miles away after the robbery, but the car was gone when the cops went to check.
Jeep and Ram could be spun off from FCA, says Marchionne
Thu, Apr 27 2017Jeep is surely the biggest single feather left in the cap of the Fiat Chrysler Automobiles portfolio. Under Sergio Marchionne's leadership, Jeep went from fewer than 500,000 annual sales in 2008 to 1.4 million in 2016, and is on track for 2 million by 2018. Add in the brand's legacy, status as one of the most recognizable nameplates in the world, and rabid fan base, and Jeep has extraordinary monetary value to its parent company. Investors and analysts have certainly noticed Jeep's inherent value. According to The Detroit Free Press, Morgan Stanley's Adam Jonas asked FCA chief Sergio Marchionne if he would ever consider spinning Jeep and Ram, FCA's dedicated truck brand, into a separate corporate entity, and he responded with a simple "Yes." Jonas estimated Jeep's worth in January of this year at $22 billion. Ram was valued at $11.2 billion. Marchionne has a history of spinning off brands while keeping them part of FCA's corporate umbrella. The most noteworthy example of this value maximization was with Ferrari, which now trades on the New York Stock Exchange and rakes in $3.4 billion in annual revenue and close to $435 million in net income, reports the Free Press. Marchionne still serves as chairman and CEO of Ferrari, and Fiat heir John Elkann owns 22 percent of the Italian marque's shares. Even if the offloading of Jeep and Ram into a separate entity would amount to little more than a profit-driven ownership change on paper, it would be huge news to the brands' loyal fanbases. In any case, such a move would likely take years to actually happen and probably wouldn't mean much at all to the products that Jeep and Ram produce. In other words, Jeep fans can keep the pitchforks in the shed ... for now. Related Video: This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings.
