After our Cars and Coffee, a few other photographers and I took some photos of Jon's (formerly bushwhacker's) 348! I have a few other photos that I haven't edited yet and will do so as soon as possible! Thanks Jon for taking the time and allowing us to get some pictures and thanks for the little jaunt to the other location! http://www.flickr.com/photos/agup627/6807949554/ Image Unavailable, Please Login http://www.flickr.com/photos/agup627/6958147063/ Image Unavailable, Please Login http://www.flickr.com/photos/agup627/6813948902/ Image Unavailable, Please Login http://www.flickr.com/photos/agup627/6960195159/ Image Unavailable, Please Login http://www.flickr.com/photos/agup627/6960278897/ Image Unavailable, Please Login Enjoy!

I don't believe it is still for sale, but I'll let Jon answer that question! Hope you are enjoying your 348 as well!
Here are my photos from the day! http://desert-motors.com/cpg/thumbnails.php?album=292 Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
Absolutely, thanks! She's had a nose job and a bit of general freshening, plus a few seals in the clutch, but that's it. It seems to get better all the time. The other day I told Dino that I'm actually reluctant to do the major in November because it's running so well and I don't want to screw with anything
I pushed really hard a year ago to buy it and at the time it was no longer for sale. Nice car. I moved on to my factory challenge instead. Copter's is still a nice car. I really like the tasteful updates.
It really is a sweet looking car. I'm typically not one for aftermarket wheels and such, but wow. I can't blame him if he had a change of heart!
WOW!!! Fantastic shots guys, thank you so very very much. I'm just as in love with this car as the day I picked it up in Redondo Beach a little over four years ago. My 348 ownership experience has been quite a pleasant one and I gotta throw out a big thanks to Bushwhacker for hooking me up with turn key happiness. I know he's bound chime in on the tail lights. He's never gonna let me forget how I destroyed his creation by removing the 355 set up and going back to the cheese graters. Soooorry Bush Since I'm turning this into an Oscar thank you speach a big thanks goes out to the man himself.......Eugenio......dude you're the best! I never forget how fortunate I am to have this car and looking at these pics really drives it home. I reckon I probably answered the is it still available question in a roundabout sorta way Huh.
Damn. Nice shots, fellas. Need to get mine up quick, I guess. Feel like I'm lagging at this point! Second location looks pretty simple, but cool. Shame I couldn't stick around a bit longer. Only have one shot so far: http://desert-motors.com/random/IMG_1118.jpg Thanks again for being a good sport and taking the car out, Jon. Funny that after like five years of talking about shooting your car I have to leave so early, haha. Love this shot, Otis. http://desert-motors.com/cpg/displayimage.php?pos=-11245
When is your girl getting some love, Dino?! Also, I really love the variation of style, with the same location, subject, the different shots just amazes me!
I'm not much for aftermarket wheels but those are the best looking ones on a 348 I have ever seen. Beautiful. Mike Reading, PA
thx for the pics. I now have a new screen saver. I think it was Jan C&C when the MP4-12c parked next to you. My eyes kept going back to the 348 as I was standing there looking at both cars side by side.
Cool, thanks. Just wanted to know for the gallery labeling. Not going to have as many photos as the other guys, obviously, but do have six shots up now. Might have a couple more a little later, though. Thanks again for getting together with all of us and I hope you like what you see! http://desert-motors.com/cpg/thumbnails.php?album=293
Wow!, cool pics I just talked to John awhile ago and he told me about this thread...don't know how I missed it. I'm so glad the car went to John...it's still pristine under his care and ownership ,I know he loves it as much as I did. Eugenio did a stellar job on thr major along with some other mods and it's hard to ask for more than that, totally amazing. The car was always driven and John continues the practice...no garage queen here but still looks and performs better than new...love and miss that 348!. John it's about those 'Cheese Grater' taillights....hmm? For those that love the wheels I got them at Ronal in Huntington Beach but I think they are not available still...at least in the states, you might try Europe?. The big brake kit on all fours was put on by Craig at Tillacks in Redondo Beach...amazing. Well CopterJohns 348 is a thing of beauty and a classic Ferrari with those distinctive strakes down the side...it just gets better and better. Again...great pics, brings back fun memories... Bush
Wow great thread and great pics !!!! .............. I had the privilege of seeeing this 348 in person !!! This was when I got to meet Dennis in person for the first time ...... way back when the car was still his ..... Dennis, I hope all is well .... shoot me a pm with your email ....... I have a small project/idea that I think you may want to collaborate on ......... it will be something that will spark some pride within many owners ..........
