This vintage 8mm film brings us back to a time when a classic Ferrari was something you actually drove and had fun with, not something you locked up in a bank vault-like garage. Titled "The Great Putdown," it's no over-produced commercial shilling for Shell. Instead, it has a star-studded cast of Ferraris including a 250 California Spyder and a 250 GTO. Taking place on famous winding bends of Mulholland Drive in the Los Angeles area, the film has a raw edge that perfectly captures a golden era of motoring. [via YouTube]
