Starting with a nice Crewcab and farming it out to someone who could really do it right, at least $70K. Fabcar did a 23 window w/3.6 a few years ago, much more trick than mine for $125K.

JG.. nice piece, I like that, looks like you do have a need for speed!! What year is that?

BrianKeithSmith

Love the XWing! Give us more info on that... That's cool stuff...

JGMACHINE

Thanks - Its a 1991. Its not that fast, does about 71, (72 down current)... Weight is about 9000 Lbs, so it cuts 2-3 foot chop no problem... I am actually thinking about selling it and stepping up to a 38 foot. I really want something that will do 80MPH+

Here is my other moneypit, but that is just because of the monthly payment

The bimmer...gotta stop upgrading the wife's car...but I think we're going to sell and grab an M5 around christmas time 2008, or a Bentley GT. Here she sits with M6 wheels and a beefed up ECU.



The GTR project...I don't even look at the receipts anymore...My 40 gallon fuel cell enduro wunderkind

how is this for a money pit?

nathanUK '81 930 G50

Sorry, is that a 308?

ferraripete

sort of i suppose...just add 4 more cyls. and aluminum had beaten body work...otherwise, just a 308.

Geoffrey

no, its a 512

ferraripete

yes...83 512 bbi s/n 45341

i have had her for 6 yrs and she is indeed ...my other money pit!!

i have a 83 308 gtb qv as well. in the flesh, i think it is hard to confuse the two cars for the initiated but there a clearly some similarities. size is not one of them...the boxer is a pretty big machine.

i really believe that like the 930, the boxer is the last of the breed for the purist.

Ok.. so now I know why its ferraripete...

And yes I understand your money pit as I have been part of a team that has serviced some of these in a paste life, and they can drink money even when properly cared for!

The 512BB is one of those where the statement fits... "you've not truly experienced Ferrari ownership until youv'e paid for a major service!".

Pete, she is a beauty though and oh the beautiful noise they make at full chat!
Had my 85 QV out a tour last week-end.. putting an end to th myth that old
308s won't run with 911 crowd. We had a great time!
