melbourne GP

I have been to the melbourne GP a couple of times. It is a good event, and there are things to do with the Mexican Ferrari guy's as well. Mr. Carl Jones, a very sordid character, usually organises a dinner followed by a trip to the steamworks! I should be done with the house by then so I will join y...

I'm stuck in Australia and you all suck.

I wish I was going to be at Monterey this year but circumstances have plotted
against beating you all at another beer drinking contest.

Have one for me and post a lot of photos.

Best Regards,

Andrew.

Luke, can you stretch the dollars to the Mondial t Cab, a 348 series. I think they have better ergonomics than the 328 series Mondial cab, but that also might be a good choice. I dunno about the boxter, capable -but a bit boring. I bought a suicide door lincoln continental to keep the GTE company. I...

Casa Munras Crash

Hi, I dunno about crashing the Aston party. I mean, don't get me wrong - my friend Chet is the Treasurer there and I crash it myself every year. Prior to their party I look down my nose at them from the upper balcony. But, there will be too many of us to be discrete. And - well, I sort of stand out ...

Pertronix

Hi,

Well done on getting this to work. How did you do the interuptor, as I understood there was no application from Pertronix for the V12 twin distributor cars.
Which kit('s) did you use?

Regards,

Andrew.

That 330 AM.

For christ's sake, will someone offer her 27K so we can all get on with our lives. Oh, 10 times the purchase price to restore - what planet do you all think this is. Something like this, which as Dave say's seems all there, would only consume about 25K/35K if you threw in some elbow grease yourself....

More Mecca

Ummm,, you guy's are kidding about the pissing match right?

O.K., so someone comes there from 15000 miles away, and now has to chose which event to visit.
I'm sorry, but FCA is clueless about this. Has anyone spoken directly to Bill Schwore (sp) about this.

Regards,

Andrew.

Mecca, split?

Hi,

Can anyone explain this?

"August 15, 2003, because at 8:00 a.m., the FCA-Pacific Region will be gathering at the San Carlos Beach Park in Monterey's historic Cannery Row"

DOES this mean that there will be a dilution of the Ferrari's at Italiano?

Mecca

Hi, The name of the indian place is "India's Clay Oven". It's on Del Monte, half a block east of the Doubletree, between Alvarado and Tyler. It sounds like Tom is really intent on doing the Keith Moon thing to his room so I'll help that process along. Let us know the window of time that the tub is o...

Tom, Now, you have met myself and Sam. Do you really think you can "throw a few refreshments in the tub" for just us two, let alone whom else might attend???? We are big guy's,,,,, remember.... Anyway, Thursday night is usually the Indian across from the "auction" hotel at the wharf. I am sure that ...

Mecca,, I mean, Concorso Italiano

Hi All,

The day is fast approaching in August for us all to congregate at the new venue for the show.

So - who's bringing a car (I don't count this year as I just bought a 67 Continental Convertible, so probably will bring that, no Ferrari)

So - who's going.


Any other sugestions?

Wiring Loom

Hi, I have contemplated replacing the wiring loom in our GTE for a little while now, but the process was excalated the other day when it was completely pulled from the car. The existing one could be salvaged, and sections replaced, but I figured that someone may know of a company there who would rep...
