    Red Baron, an antiques auction company in Atlanta, is advertising a 1959 Ferrari Dino 196 "aluminum body" race car for their June 24 auction.

    Do any of you have any information on this car? Is it real, or a recreation?

    Their place is not too far from where I live, I think I could swing by there before the 24th, if it is on site...do you have any assurance the car is there now...I might be able to slip out tomorrow.

    I suspect it is the Ebay car, it is not shown on the Automotive Legends site any longer.

    I'm just wondering, as I'm not a vintage racing nut, who is the "world famous Johann" who drove the car at Sebring at the most recent 2006 vintage race?

    thanks,

    Dave
