@ Harvey Goranson and any other Ferrari fan re: post #27588......(pics)

Harvey stated in his post that he bought 5 Ferraris in 5 days at the Chicago show....I have a similar story and his post reminded me of mine.

I went on a Ferrari hunt a few months ago, and gathered these up in about 3 weeks time from different ebay sellers....crashed my bank account to the tune of more than $1400 when the smoke cleared!
BBR's, Ilarios, Contacts, an MG and a Redline.

I knew somebody would notice the Thomassima twins!.....good eye!....(link)

I tried to discretely slip them both in without anyone noticing that there were 2!
One I bought brand new with a crack in the body for $50, which was an easy fix with a drop of super glue...you cant even tell it was cracked.
The 2nd one I payed $125, brand new.
Both were a steal...!

the history on all three Thomassima cars is very interesting.

Twins

I have the Contact model of the Thomissama 111. I did not buy the P4 look alike. When Ferrari won the Daytona 24 hrs placing 1/2/3 in 1967 with their new P4 I thought that it was the most beautiful race car ever designed, I still think that it is today.
