And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.

Line of beautiful Italian metal at the Ferrari factory, 1984
Yes, in the foreground back to the first black top. 288 Gran Turismo >Olomogato<. There may be some "Magnum-mobiles" but if so, they are in the background.
-"Initially Ferrari built only 272 road GTOs and an additional 5 GTO Evoluzione for pure racing use, of which only 3 are still exist. The last 288 GTO was built for ex-Formula 1 World Champion Niki Lauda in 1986 and was given to him as a gift, making it the Holy Grail of all the 288 GTOs built." https://www.thecollectorscircle.com/ferrari-288-gto/
That is probably a month's production run.
ReplyDeleteI see 29 so about a weeks worth of the 308 run in 1984.
DeleteWhat year was the Magnum Mobile?
ReplyDeleteAccording to Wikipedia:
DeleteSeason 1 – 1979 308GTS (chassis number 28251)
Seasons 2–6 – 1981 308GTSi
Seasons 7–8 – 1984 308GTSi quattrovalvole
Those are 288 GTO's

DeleteAt first I was going to disagree but you are correct. The deep chin/air dam gives it away. $2-$3 million each these days.
