If I recall, this car comes up for treasury auction regularly (at least twice before). Don't get excited, the owner (Walter M., I think) will pay the lien and it will be withdrawn. However, I like the pictures! Just in case, Jim G., a coupe and spyder combo might be nice! Regards, Art S.
WOW!! My bro and I were just talking about the 412P converted 330P4s yesterday.. Non-payment of taxes. I'm guessing it wouldn't be hard to figure out who it was. Beautiful car.. I would love to own something like that.
for the curious, this will save you a step. http://www.barchetta.cc/english/All.Ferraris/Detail/0858.330P4.htm
Oh, man......I'm sorry ........The AZ address threw me......They should leave Walter alone.............
Yea, but I thought he'd done some liquidation since the Road & Track article and settled up.......I guess only death and taxes...........
The key line from that article: In 1995 a local newspaper columnist pleaded with legislators to "remedy" what he called "the Walter Medlin Tax Relief Act," so named for Medlins habit of letting his property go to tax auction, then buying it back, over and over and over, thereby postponing paying taxes on it.
Cars as property, or property as property? I don't understand, they are taxes ON the cars or the cars are seized against his other obligations?????? His court records in Kissimmee have all kinds of entries about abandoned mobile home offices and such....... I'd go see 'em all, if he'd block them up in one building! We need to get Walter some cash flow!
Ah, looking over shoulder, if I uh promise to mow your grass for now and foreever can I take it for one little spin. I promise to be careful. I promise!
Before it shows up in Cavallino or some other such publication, Dale and I were joking. There is no deal involved and no, I didn't get the car. But there is a certain fchatter that has convinced me not to get an MC-12 as an Audi R8 is available. For less money than Maser wanted. Just have to convince the wife...
