First the price kept going up. At my last offer it was the most expensive series 1 on the planet! Then six months in Hawaii without contact with the owner didn't help.

5701 GT

I see that RPM has just purchased this car. I have been living in Hawaii and have not spoken to the original owner for several months. Anybody know any details about the sale. This car is perfect with 3175 miles on it. I put the last 10 on it myself. I surely hope the original owner is in good health.

Elder,
You will probably get better help on a 308 at Ferrari Chat.

Is there any reason not to just drain the coolant and then stick the garden hose in the radiater and let it go for a while?

The show was spectacular. My wife even enjoyed it. And having a Teardrop Coupe there was the icing on the cake.

Thanks Kerry, I thought this was my problem as well. The fuel filler box was leaking on my car and I was able to seal this with some caulk. after washing the car I noticed another leak around both lower coners on the glass. I think the silicone should solve the problem. I just did not know if a 3M ...

I contacted Len many years ago about his GTE register. He very graciously sent me a huge booklet of information including a re-print of the owners manual and sent me 6 months of his news letter at no charge. He told me if I didn't like the owners books and technical information I could just keep the...

Still looks like a pretty ok car, and the opening price is not outragous. Will be interesting to see the reserve.

Personally when it comes to vintage cars I am a die hard fan of repulsive colors. I think it is very cool how Ferrari can get away with these gastly colors. My all time favorite is the Daytona style seats in a very sick color like White with Chocolate Brown or Dark Green inserts. My friend has a 330...

As long as we are on this subject, a very well known Ferrari mechanic told me that you only have to tighten the nut on the adjustment screw finger tight, and it will not loosen over time. Anybody have comments?

I bought a rebuild kit from Rutlands for my 250gt. I could use only the diaphram and two screens. The other parts weren't even found on my car. There has got to be a better way.
