Ferrari 275 tour - Italy

[irrational_i]

I have put up quite a few photos of mostly 275 Ferraris from the recent tour. There are still quite a few to be scanned from the actual tour that I will add later.
Photos include Lamborghini and Ferrari museums and some interesting car dealers and workshops.
I also did not really comment them. Just some brief headings here and there.
Some links may be down for a day..

The index page can be found here:

Clicking on a thumbnail will link to a high-res one.

Videos are not fully uploaded yet, but will be added to.
They are quite sizeable but I did not want to lose too much sound or picture quality.
For best results pipe the video to your TV, including the sound...

Thanks for sharing! Sadly no pics of the GT3 RS I see inside Singen auto-salon :(

But a BIG THANKS for the Miura pictures!!!!!!

(moved to the "what you saw" section ;))

Perhaps, only this once, the GT3 RS was not as special...8).
I want to go back and fill up a whole memory card just at Auto-salon!

I've been looking forward to this thread!

Great that you and your friend spoke with Sergio Scaglietti! His car is wonderful and so are the GTB/C and the yellow Speciale. Amazing stuff...

Your write-up of the trip is an excellent read! Thanks. :D

I am busy uploading the videos. The video link is now working.
So some may not be working until tomorrow.

I am going to write a better paragraph about the 275's and Ferrari specifically for viewers of this forum. The story was for my friends as well, so had some rather arb stuff in it.

Tomorrow is Ferrari day at Kayalami, so I am hoping for good shots. Unfortunately classic Ferraris are rare in South Africa.

I have a video of an F40 around kayalami...well done.

[irrational_i]

Sorry. Seems I made some errors in my uploading!
The video link page now works better and fixed broken link.

I am waiting for some proffesional photos being sent from Europe before posting the bit about the 5 days in Tuscany...
I have no idea how long this will take. 8(

Also it seems some people have had browser problems. The page works fine with IE and Opera, do not know about Netscape...

I cant see the pics!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!, whyyyyyyyyy???????? :x :x

[irrational_i]

I have traced a possible error - will try my best to have it fixed before end of today.
It has to do with relative and absolute pathnames...

I downloaded and saw the F40 video. The guy misses some apexes, but generally not too bad! I was inside the pits to the left just as he enters the pitlane. 8).

Here is my book signed by Sergio Scaglietti(84 years old!) and Brenda Verner, Enzo's former secretary and fun person.
Also the nicked "access card" that allowed me into Fiorano. 8)
