tom shaunessey

If they made a movie like Raiders of the Lost Arc where the arc was replaced by a Ferrari, then Tom Shaunessey would have to be the consultant. He who has become famous in Ferrari circles for finding Ferraris in barns. I saw one video where he was accompanied in the unearthing by no less a personage than Freeman Thomas, the famous car designer (who is actaully a Porsche fan topmost but can appreciate the excitement of a barn find) . Tom at one time wanted to be Mr. Lamborghini, but somewhere got his vision readjusted to see only Ferraris and at one car show after another I see a thoroughbred Ferrari with a light coat of dust (and artfully applied spyder webs) and know he's found another treasure.
His secrets haven't been spelled out completely but I gather earlier on he sold Borrani wire wheels and maybe that led owners of old Ferraris to his door. I dunno. But anyway he has far and away outstripped the competition and I can't wait until the next Ferrari event to see what other treasure he has found...

His ultimate find was a Devin bodied race car on ebay for ounder $27000, happened to be a long lost 340 America underneath. And tho it didn't have the proper engine, he happened to have that engine in storage.
