You are bidding on a 1957 Ferrari Testarossa Pontoon Fender wall hanging AT NO RESERVE. This is a 1/2 cut actual size body done off molds in 1980s. There were three complete cars built with engines using the same molds by Bob Shaw and Chuck Rahn out of Arizona. I had this made as a side project. The molds were destroyed in a fire at the shop. You could use this to make body pieces. This piece was made heavy duty so it could be used as a buck to pull a mold/pieces.
This piece, when finished, would make the ultimate addition to a man cave or garage, as well as an amazing office piece for any Ferrari enthusiast. As you can see in the photos the body pieces are primed, but need finishing. Also included in this is a 1/2 lexan windshield and aluminum trim, headlight cover and Carello Tail light. This piece could be a one off or used to make several if you would like.
I own numerous race cars and have been in the car world for quite some time. This was started right and needs to be finished right. I started this project in the 80's and never finished. I have over $8,000 invested so far but am starting the bidding at $3,900 with no reserve. If you would like more info please feel free to email me with any questions:

Ferrari planning special Schumacher tribute to mark injured racer's 45th birthday
Thu, 02 Jan 2014Michael Schumacher may have completed his Formula One career with Mercedes-Benz, but the German racer will forever be associated with the Scuderia Ferrari, where he spent the better part of a decade winning just about everything. And as the seven-time World Champion continues to fight for his life following a skiing accident, the Tifosi are in the midst of organizing to pay tribute to one of their greatest heroes as his 45th birthday approaches.
According to the Scuderia's Facebook page, it's calling on Scuderia Ferrari Clubs from across Europe to show up at the Grenoble Hospital where Schumacher is being treated for a "silent and respectful" event to honor the injured champion, whose birthday is tomorrow. There's also a tribute being run on the Scuderia's website passing along the team's thoughts as Schumacher tries to recover from his injury.
The latest reports on Schumacher indicate that his condition continues to be stable, but he remains in a medically induced coma. News of the circumstances surrounding his ski mishap continue to trickle out, with the latest report from The Mirror heartbreakingly suggesting that Schumacher was actually attempting to help a friend's daughter who had fallen herself when he had his own tumble.
Ford GT40 makes historic return to racing at Goodwood
Wed, 23 Oct 2013Is there a more iconic, American racecar than the Ford GT40? That may be a discussion for another day (although by all means, tell us how wrong we are in Comments), but this video of heaps of GT40s running in the Goodwood Revival races certainly has us thinking that Ford's Ferrari-killer might just be the best racer the Land Of The Free and Home Of The Brave has ever come up with.
That's completely ignoring the fact that the GT40 was largely developed by Brits using American money, but that's besides the point (there was also a rather brash Texan, who had a big role later in development). The resulting vehicle was dominant, besting the cars of Il Commendatore from 1966 to 1969, although it should be noted that Ford's GT40 was unable to beat Ferrari in its first two Le Mans outings in 1964 and 1965.
Those four years of dominance, which started with Ford sweeping the podium, were enough to establish the GT40's legend. And now, here we are almost 50 years later, celebrating the mid-engined monsters at Goodwood, in their first ever one-make race. Take a look below for the entire video.
