I am selling a replica Ferrari Daytona Spyder. It is titled as a 1985
Cali, built on a 1979 Corvette donor. I bought this car to restore, but found another project I want to put my
time and efforts into more, so the Daytona has to go to next owner. This car runs and drives good. The previous
owner had used it very sparingly the last 5 years, just running it around the block to keep the fluids stirred. It
will need all the things associated with long storage(belts, all fluids changed, hoses, filters, etc). Still
drives surprising well though, I thought it would have all kinds of squeaks and rattles being a replica, but it
doesn't. Drives like a 70s Vette. The serial numbers on the engine pad are V05047ZAJ 195436030. The chassis and
frame are nice for the age, a little surface rust here and there, no rot, the section between the front a-frames
has evidence of it hitting a rock or two, but it's still fine. The body is in excellent shape, no cracks or
damage, no evidence of any wrecks or previous bodywork. The paint looks nice from 10 or 20 feet, still shiny. Get
up close and you can see plenty of touched up scratches and chips, so it could use paint if you feel like it. The
wheels are in good shape with no curb rash. The tires about 3 years old, have less than 100 miles on them. Battery
about 1 year old. The interior is fair, the seats do not have any rips or tears, the rest of the interior shows
wear and tear. It has a wood MOMO steerng wheel. Also tilt/telescopic steering column. The odometer shows 12,548
and stills turns, I assume it has rolled over and it's really 112K miles but who knows, shows exempt on title. The
A/C still works fine, blows cold. All the gauges work except the clock. Needs some little things like the horn
doesn't work, I see a little oil drip on my floor(not a huge amount), and one of the truck hinges needs repair(I
think the bolts are stripped out and the hinge is bent some), little things like this that you can fix as you're
driving and enjoying the car. The power windows go up and down fine, but sometimes you need to wiggle the switches
a little to get them to go, so it could use new switches. Oh and the top could use replacing, its brittle and
tearing around the bottom snaps. The headlight cover door system is there, but the vacuum hoses run to nowhere, I
don't think it was ever hooked up, so the covers lay flat to expose the headlights. I took a picture of them closed
so you can see what it looks like, I did it manually.

How not to unload the 1 of 1 Ferrari P4/5 Competizione from a trailer
Mon, 28 Oct 2013Believe it or not, unloading a car from a transport vehicle is a delicate science. It's alarmingly easy to damage a car in the tight, elevated confines of a dedicated car hauler, but as these gentlemen at the Monterey car week found out, even getting a car off a flatbed comes with its own unique set of challenges.
When the car you're moving off said flatbed is the only Ferrari P4/5 Competizione in existence, meticulously built to the specifications of Ferrari collector James Glickenhaus, we imagine the stress level is even greater. Yes, this is an unloading gone wrong, although it could have always been worse. The movers have the right idea, working boards underneath the car, but simply didn't account for the car moving them. The result is a racecar, resting ever so gracefully, on its carbon-fiber nose. Getting the car out of such a precarious position safely requires nearly as much skill as getting it off in the first place.
Take a look below for the full, cringe-inducing video.
Ferrari patents new electronic steering assist
Wed, 16 Jul 2014Automobiles keep getting more and more advanced, with computers playing an ever-increasingly vital role in their operation. But some things remain the same. Despite more advanced (if not necessarily better) technologies available, we still burn fossils to fuel our engines, we still check what's behind us in actual mirrors and (with few exceptions) we still turn a steering wheel mechanically connected to the front wheels to change directions. But that doesn't mean automakers aren't working at new solutions.
We've sampled electric steering systems developed by Japanese automakers like Honda and Infiniti that disconnect the front wheels from the steering column, but while those systems may be the way of the future, they leave the driver feeling physically disconnected from the road. Ferrari, however, has a different idea.
Instead of either relying completely on a traditional system or replacing it with an entirely digital one, Ferrari appears to have found a sweet spot in the middle. According to a patent filing obtained by Evo, Ferrari is developing a system that still uses a direct mechanical steering linkage, but enhances it through the use of software that corrects for certain inconsistencies.
What next for Stefano Domenicali?
Tue, 29 Apr 2014Ferrari is a team that's used to being on top. It does, after all, have more world championships to its name - 15 drivers' titles and 16 constructors' - than any other team in the history of Formula One racing. But despite having some of the best drivers and resources at its disposal, it hasn't won a championship in over five years. Someone had to take the blame for that, and that someone turned out to be Stefano Domenicali.
The team principal who took over after Jean Todt stepped back to focus first on the running of the entire company and then the FIA, Domenicali has presided over the driest spell in the team's history since Michael Schumacher and Ross Brawn arrived in the late 90s to bring Ferrari back to its winning form. Whether that ultimately proves to have been Domenicali's fault or not, the buck stopped on his desk and he resigned a couple of weeks ago, making way for Ferrari's North American chief Marco Mattiacci to take the reins. At least for now, anyway, as rumors circulate of a longer-term solution that could bring Ross Brawn back into the fold following his recent departure from Mercedes.
The big question now, however, is what Domenicali will do next. The latest intel suggests that he could leave four wheels behind but stay in the field of competitive sports to coach an Italian basketball team. The rumors are fueled by reports that Domenicali has been in touch with Giovanni Petrucci, head of the Federazione Italiana Pallacanestro - Italy's national basketball federation. The organization runs two professional basketball leagues within Italy as well as its national team that's won eight international championships, two gold, four silver and four bronze medals in the European league and two silver medals in the Olympics.
