    Hi all.
    Today I took a couple of pix of my F50's along with the rest of my collection..
    And I got my wifes blessing of buying a glass cabinet and put them on display in the LIVINGROOM!!!! (can you belive that) :)
    I'm gonna buy the cabinet tomorrow, but I'm gonna trade those wooden shelfs with glass and I'm gonna install lights in it.
    I'll post pix when its done.

    Hot stuff, dude...! Awesome collection... Way in the back, there's a gray-ish F50 with white specks in the paint... What is that...? Is that a custom paint job or did you buy it like that or......?

    This F50 is kinda special - I got it today from a dude in Germany.
    The car has been repainted with some strange paint, I dont know what you guys in the US call this kinda paint
    Anyway, the car looks like it has been carved out of stone - the surface is not smooth at all, but its very...hmm...lost the word, but if you can imagine you moving your finger over a rock or something....thats what it feels like, kinda cool.
    Here are some more pix of it.

    Paul - Whoa! Cool...!

    Are the moving parts still functional...? The doors, the boot, the bonnet, etc....? It looks pretty cool... Did the seller tell you why he did what he did to it...? Does it have any special meaning or representation...?

    Yes, everything is still working - wheels, doors, hood and engine cover.
    Its very well painted, I'm having a hard time to see the the dooors and the engine cover due to the thick paint.
    I'm gonna send a mail to the dude who sold me this car and ask him what and how he did this.
    I belive it has been repainted just for fun, no presentations or anything.
    It looks like Fred Flintstone's F50 :)

    Yeah, flecking might be the right word for it.

    I like it, it is totally new and different. We must all remember that beauty is in the eye of the beholder. That is a fabulous collection.
