    There are things with colors and shapes that one couldn't say any other way - things I had no words for. This..... is a quintessential example. I am gobsmacked.

    These are the Ferraris I grew up appreciating through my war time Dad. I do admit I found the Boxers and 308s more visually exciting as a 5 year old at the first Australia Ferrari meetings I attended but not many years later I realized the pre Daytona cars are the real Ferrari road cars. These Vignales are my favorite if I had millions I would have one over anything manufactured after the 70s

      There was a time in my life that I thought all Ferraris were red with fins and wings. Post war coach built ones are true works of art. Thanks for watching.

    Jon, I just found your channel, and I'm glad I did. That Ferrari is gorgeous. I have a question. Do you ever worry about driving rare and expensive cars like this Ferrari?

    • @jondega
      @jondega  22 วันที่ผ่านมา +2

      I don't worry about it, but I am conscious of the value of the assets I'm entrusted with. When we take the cars out for road tests or exercise we stay close and drive in familiar areas at times during the day with less traffic. Glad you liked the Ferrari there's more to come. Thanks for watching.

    Thank you! Was unaware of this model. Enjoyed the virtual drive. Not sure about leaf spring in front. Would have thought Ferrarri would have used independant or wishbone. Maybe he had a special way to make it work? What a lovely automobile. Thank you gentlemen for a thoroughly drooling experience. I still think i like Elena best.

      Chris, your very welcome glad you enjoyed the video. The 212 front end is independent with a transverse leaf mounted low between the lower arms; the 250 chassis is a big upgrade. The Elaena's were a continuation of the low roof Boano's that is actually a Pinin Farina design. Stay tuned there is a 1956 Alloy Boano 250 in the collection that may show up on a future video. Thanks for watching.

    It does remind me of the Volvo P-1800. I love the sheer simplicity of the flowing design, the choice of colors, and above all, it is without all of the F22/35 ductwork, in spite of all of the chrome used. However, the glorious noise coming from that Columbo motor, without all of the smog hoses and electronic enhancements, is worth its weight in gold alone!

    So it drives like a better than average 50 year old car. Nostalgia of driving an old car lasts for about the first fifty miles, then it starts to remind you how much old cars suck in comparison to modern cars.

    • @jondega
      @jondega  25 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      Paul, I don't think "Suck" is the correct term here. Yes, it's more primitive and less refined but just like vinyl records have an appeal over digital recordings so does this, personally if I'm given the opportunity to drive one of these more than 50 miles I'm doing it with out a second thought. Remember sometimes its about about the journey and not the destination. Thanks for watching.

      Vignale and Ghia we the most artistic and decorative of the post war Italian coach builders. Vignale always did a great job of bringing Giovanni Michelotti designs to life. Thanks for watching

      @ Thanks! Can’t say there are any Italian coach builders of the 1950s/1960s that I don’t like! Shame Ford bought both Ghia and Vignale and used the names on tarted up versions of their pedestrian vehicles.

      Clocks are not metric. The French (?!) tried metric clocks based on a 10 hour full day. Each full day had 10 hours, each hour 100 minutes and, you guessed it, each minute had 100 seconds. It just wasn't practical and never caught on.
