@mytdawg: Nah, the rich and famous themselves do plenty of this on their own. Wealth and fame don't directly translate to expert driving.

According to their website, there are SIX 400/400i/412s in their inventory and an LM002! Man, they should charge admission. I'd pay to see all this rich wreckage.

I knew something didn't sound right, I and Ben both stand corrected, it's a 1967 365GT (not 356 as previously reported) and it carreis the Queen Mary desgination , whatever that means.

Speaking of queens, check out the 8-track copy of Elton John live in the '65 Ferrari 330 GT 2+2, somewhere a London coke dealer is missing his best alternative lifestyle client. This car look pretty good, once you get past the quad headlights, wonder why its getting scavanged...

Man, each one of this things could tell quite a story.

Don't think a '72 F-series is gonna tow one of these bad boys home from there. If anyone has large boat heading that way I'll take the 356 GT and start the LHD conversion, thank you kindly

It's kind of like that whole "Die doing what you love." sort of thing. Not for the people driving the cars, but for the cars themselves. I'd rather a car be driven and enjoyed than locked away, and sometimes this is the unfortunate consequence of that enjoyment.

A few of the cars look quite repairable. Others...not so much.

Anyway, I believe the proper thing to do is to get one of those Ferrari engines into a Fiero.

Not a kit car, but a stock looking Fiero. That would rule!

Just the place to use to source and engine for when I make my dream come true of installing a Ferrari engine in an Alfa.

Option 1: Dino V6 engine in '74 or earlier Spider. Give the car the sound it sorely needs. Why not use an Alfa V6? Because it's a frickin Ferrari engine!

Option 2: 308/328 engine in GTV6. These cars are so funky looking, some Magnum-inspired style in the engine compartment could only help.

Option 3: 308/328 engine in Saab 9000. Hey, if Lancia made it fit in the Thema (platform mate of the 9000), I can make it fit the 9k!
