hi,

good story! Do you remember if this was a drive shaft? (one of the two)? Mine was broken and as they are about 35 mm thick we really want to know how this can happen with a 180HP (or so) car? We never heard of any vintage Ferrari that had problems with them.
Also did your father have an export or in an inter....(easy to check as if he is 6 feet tall and had his knees in his chin, or you as a boy of 10 can hardly stretch your legs than this must be an export

After some hick-ups this week the 212 export has been registered and is now ready for the FIVA pasport. I did drive the car (without any mods, even the clamp-on mirror dropped...) through tight traffic for about 300 km's. Real fun, very fast and a good predictable handling. The crash box is fun and much easier than expected. When hot double clutching and down shifting is easy. The car is vey small and if you park it you find way more room than from the inside expected.

I will install only the clamp on morrors and the seat belts. Chair is ok, I am into yoga for my legs...skipped the surgery.

Here a pic of today. A dutch car enthausiast made some more, he will probably post them somewhere on the internet.

we took her out for a long ride, just between the rain. hope because of climate changes we end up with a nice and long indian summer in europe.

almost ready for signing up for the MM 2009 (although the dates are not definitive yet...) did all the work for the fiva passport and have all the info they requested. got some very nice info from red barron and julio, and hope some real enthausiasts will join the MM with us. even my wife is looking forward to it........
ciao
