    Love the euro look and blue carpeting in the trunk! All the good stuff! As a BBS wheel runner myself, love the look they bring to this car. And BBS still makes all the parts you need for this wheel if you have any issues.

    Congrats on the car! Great story. I also run my Dad's old GT4. Its a family member!

    Thanks for your comments, happy to transmit them to my father - it's a special kind of a family car indeed.

    Interesting, I didn't know! We also have a set of (unrestored so far) original wheels matching the spare:

    Lovely car! The BBS alloys are perfect for that GT4.

    Advice from Dino crowd please: The centre caps of the original wheels of our car shown above (which were acquired only recently) have Dino scripts. Our car however was delivered in 1976 as a Ferrari, badged as such all round. Shouldn't the centre caps sport a little horse as well, instead of the Dino scripts? Opinions appreciated! Thanks.

    ... unfortunately, at the moment, nothing other than they work very well indeed and are rare. I will try to find out more from the local specialist who tuned them on the test stand when running the engine in.

    I think they should be DCNF. But that car is a beauty!

    Yes. Alberto, they should be :) but they aren't and apparently haven't been "forever"...

    We don't know, the engine didn't get dyno tested. Maybe in the future when it's fully run in :)

    The AC 3000ME used a 3.0 litre push-rod Ford V6. I didn't think it used anything particularly sophisticated on the induction front.
