Thanks Dyke, I stand confused! I went by discussion with David Carte, and his shop, and the period photos I posted of silver systems that appear...
[ATTACH]
That last, 3rd photo I posted is likely a 4-cam and may have Ceretto system, but just guessing.
Greg, I know David determined that, what I assume is the Abarth system (with the tail-pipe resonator configured with the square off end at the...
Thank you Andrew for the 315s color photo of 0684 at Elkhart, which enlightens the chronology. Here is the June 1957 photo at Le Mans, car No.8...
Marcel, Regarding 0684. I saw the car when it was presented restored at Pebble Beach. I have always been puzzled by the seat restoration, a...
Marcel, May I ask about the book for 06611? I am not familiar with this book. Thanks
Thanks for correcting me Dyke, my mistake and memory fade. Yes, it is Sports Car Graphic - the issue is October 1965.
Greg, I understand that an old period Carello catalog may show numbers and list their application.
Same car, different events.
See Bernard Cahier's road test of the 275GTB, Road & Track, October 1965. Short-nose, one badge passenger side. We can be reasonably certain Mr....
Greg, I believe that when applicable to a Euro car, the proper Carello headlight number for the 275GTB is 07.585.700, not the 07.485. Note...
I'm sure there are plenty of valid examples of both with and without.
Looking through my photos, un-restored original cars with pininfarina badges both sides, and especially long-nose late cars with badges both...
I agree, looks like 1453GT, which was restored by Roelofs I believe - exact same blue and same shade of red interior.
Watching this 1960 Le Mans video, it is astounding and scary how they learned nothing from 1955.

Routinely silly gouging prices from this vendor. A Weber key wrench for £300? $60 item all day long, easily found.
Shipping from the USA to overseas has become exorbitant and absurd. I received a model order from Japan, arrived in 3 days, the shipping was $30....
Dyke, Thanks for that clarification of the drum brakes.
