I do not know of a more beautiful sound than a V12 Ferrari.

Will be a great car Eddie. Thanks for sharing.
I have ran into some issues on parts for my 300G convertible but yours would be tougher! I found a guy that hand made me a whole trunk pan work of art!

Wow! That is amazing that a person is that talented to duplicate what the factory had stamped. I was looking for auction results for that Ferrari, but didn't see any; I'll keep searching.

Very cool. Looks like they stole some design elements from the Loewy coupes.

Or the other way around......

Those are my images
 
This is timely for me ...

I am in the middle of moving a private collection of vehicles from Napa, CA to Virginia City, NV.

The images in the first post are mine - I took them when I transported this car in September of 2014 from Clairence Daniels in Gardnerville, NV ...

@ https://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/...nsport.521497/

I spent an entire day with Clairence at his property loading the balanced body along with several wooden crates ....

Clairence has an impressive history with the early days of Pebble Beach.

He narrowly missed losing this car - along with his life - in a wildfire
several years ago ...

That was when he decided to sell the car - it was very difficult for him to let go
of it because of the emotional attachment.

Clairence is a very cool guy with great stories about the early days of Pebble Beach.

Pretty sure the Loewy coupes were earlier. That is a 1953 model in the pic I posted.

We've got a shop full of guys that do that all day, every day.

My philosophy (as was my father's) is that if someone can make that in the first place than someone can remake it.

I'm guessing your Ellena is a precursor to this 1961 I saw a few months back?
