      Ferraris are such a mishmash. Check your coolant lines on the 430, they are prone to fail and tend to explode. Love what you do Sam!

    (or would it have been more accurate to say, Manual to the cockpit, not just manual till you put a bunch of Hydraulics on it)
    Say, doesn't that poor formerly Pizza car deserve at least an occasional wash? It was looking kinda grungy in the back.
