Decoding my Ferrari Tool Set

Post by 330 America »

Having seen a few threads regarding 250 toolkits, it made me go out to my garage and open up the tool kit that came with my 330 America to see what I had, what was missing, and whether any of the items looked original.

Can anyone tell me the original manufacturer of the wrenches and screw drivers? My screw drivers are not wood handled (they are see-through plastic) so I'm not sure they are original -- but if Rudy or someone might give me the quick summary on what I should be looking for in terms of stampings/markings, etc. on the original tools, that would be great. My jack and hammer look original.

I have seen plastic handled screwdrivers on later cars, but don't know what the America should have. Kerry might know. My Series III (4247) has the wood handled jobs. Both are slotted; no philips, no names, no markings. Pretty ordinary looking screwdrivers.

My set of open end wrenches come in size 8/9, 10/11, 12/13, 14/15, 16/17, 18/19 & 20/22. God help you if you have a 21mm bolt! One side says BETA - AUTO - NO 55

As long as we are discussing tool kits, does anybody know what the logo on the Oil Filter Wrench stands for? Yes Rudy, I know it looks like Prince's signature, but if it is, I will be very disappointed with Ferrari...

And the Spark Plug Wrench. I see an oval with CMA in it and probably something that should be before that. Any suggestions?
