Well, dear boy, you'll just have to take a copy of my photo with the bonnet down then!! Thank you for ALL the photos - wonderful. Esp. Gaydon FCGB meeting - wonderful. Testarossa E966CGD black/red is 77036. Interested to know the identity of the 275GTB[4?] HBV323E - new one on me. Robert W Image Unavailable, Please Login
s/n 10169. Past plates include: ATF7, GRE879E and 275GTB. I've got a note on file that suggests it may also be/have been 5GTS (source for that is down as Jonathan T - I'm sure he can verify whether that's right). -Ed
s/n 18145. Its conversion by Autokraft can only have been finished a matter of months earlier - perhaps this was its public debut as a targa? Not sure where this car is now - it was for sale last year (IIRC) with THJ. Restored back to Berlinetta body and painted in Rosso Chiaro, though I think the interior is now VM3218 equivalent when it was originally VM3234. -Ed
A few more from Gaydon. The Testarossa H9 BCY could either be 86730 or 91074 - this registration has been on at least 6 Ferraris. Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login

Most of the serial numbers I state are taken from the Ferrari Club Register - there could be errors of course. I didn't take notice of serial numbers at the time.
Another batch. A sea of red in those days, with a few yellow thrown in for the more adventurous. I don't know any of the serial numbers. Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
David. PPC 371W is not a GTS but a RHD GTC # 12249 which was converted. Lots of information here: https://www.bonhams.com/auctions/16248/lot/579/

Michael. I am not sure how young you are but before you know it you will be posting your photos from events that you are attending now, that will be 30 years in the past. Instead of explaining to youngsters what an Olympus OM10 35mm SLR was, you will be trying to explain what an iphone 7 was. What I realise from my photographs is just how many cars I did not take pictures of. There are cars in the background that at the time I considered ordinary and therefore did not photograph. Now they are becoming rare. When you saw so many Daytonas and 275 GTBs in one place it was easy to not photograph them all. Oh to have had a digital camera back then to have been able to photograph everything! If you are at any events please take pictures and please keep them, in whatever format. Photographs taken today will become the history of tomorrow. Robert
I'm 22! I did used to take a photo of every Ferrari I'd see but like you say when you see loads of them or loads together you miss some out. I think I'll start to take photos of everything I find with regards to the fact photos don't take up much space! I already have a few thousand Ferrari pic's, maybe I'll post them online one day
Hi Robert - i was at that event and have almost identical suite of pictures to yours......I have loads - PM me your vehicle, and reg, and Il''l see if i have any of yours - i was in my Mondial 8...at 28 years of age, owned for just around a year then.....thanks for sharing - plenty of memories
