- This short film gives a brief insight into the unique Ferrari Dino 3.6 litre V8 upgrade package by Moto Technique. This car is the result of collaboration with David Lee of the Hing Wa Lee Group, California and Andy Cohen of Beverly Hills Motoring. The unique upgrade is "Bolt-on, Bolt-off" using original and genuine Ferrari parts and gives this amazing car the potential it always had, along with modern day performance, handling and reliability, whilst respecting and keeping the cars original charm and characteristics. As Kevin O'Rouke says himself: "The Dino's Ferrari DNA is ingrained and permanent" Jay Leno describes this car as "As nice a restored as I've ever seen...a Brilliant car"
Simply amazing work by the Moto Technique team. This run of 10 Dino EVO editions (or at least proposed) will be sought after not because of the performance, but because of the painstaking attention to detail in making everything else work to perfection.
Glorious exhaust note.
Back in early 1980 I have a choice to buy Dino for about the same price Lotus but I always a have a deep love for Lotus Esprit so went for it no regret super handling car much fun. Dino would have been a great investment when you get old and look back. But in life you live once follow your passion if Ferrari calling than you must go.
I don't think you would have regretted the Dino. At the time it was considered the best handling car in the world. My Europa was considered the second, after the Dino.
Marvellously evocative footage … top-drawer all round!
Thank you. We're glad you like it.
Beautiful car, thanks for sharing.
Thank you too for taking the time to comment. It is much appreciated.
incredible job, incredible car. delicius!
Utterly arresting. Every time I look at this masterpiece, it strikes me dumb and I just gape.
Magical Beasts.
Thank you so much for your comment.
Beautiful car, but part of the charm of the 206 and 246 Dinos is the V6 engine. To me it just suits the car. Without it they don't sound right. Just like a Stratos with a V8 wouldn't
Exactly, a Dino is light, fun and youthful. The V8 is to heavy/hard hitting for a car like that.
@@f2detaboada Yes. Light, fun and youthful. Great description.
Hi Alan, Thank you for your comment, Its quite normal for people to say that, but I can tell you with honesty that everyone who has expressed the same view and has then had the opportunity to either drive or be a passenger in one of our restomods have changed their minds with a 100% success rate. I hope that one day you get the opportunity too.
@@mototechnique1282 yes, be nice should the opportunity come along. Certainly more power and mod cons compared to the original spec, which Ferrari would have built into it by now.
Wow that sounds good!! Well done!!
a true work of art.
Thank you. We value your comment.
The black is beautiful, but the red with 360 Modena's wheel, not for me
Everything about cars is so subjective. Biggest disparities I've seen are the wheels. I don't like those wheels either!
Thank you for your comment. It's a 50:50 thing. As Kevin O'Rourke explains in the video its like "Marmite" he also explains why on the original Red Prototype it had to be this way.
What would it cost me for you to build another.. ballpark..?
Hi Stephen, Thank you for your question. Well, firstly you are going to need a donor car just to start off with. These Dino EVO's are bespoke and have many different technical specifications and options, so pricing can vary by quite a margin. What we would normally do is sit down with the client and find out precisely what their requirements are then we would collaborate on a specification and take it from there. Like all our restomod work each car is unique and so giving a ballpark figure is not quite straight forward.
Dino not Ferrari. No horse, no nameplate. far less valuable. It is a Dino.
This has to be one of the most beautiful cars ever
Incredible piece of engineering chaps - it really is in a different class.
In my humble opinion, this is a perfect car.
Thank you for your kind comment.
Exquisite! Makes a 911 look about as beautiful as a Russian tractor!
It is indeed!
The finest dino the world has seen
Thank you 🙏🏼
To me, the DINO is the most beautiful and classy Ferrari ever made.
I'm partial to the 288 GTO, but I'd be just as happy with this one too. Stunning!
We totally agree with you 😊
@@jakethepitador2558 We love the 288GTO. You are a man of great taste.
What a piece of art!!!
Thank you 🙏🏼
When I read the title I was terrified you’d dropped an American big block in. Perfect build
Thank you. What we have done is evolve the original Dino's handling and performance to more modern standards whilst always respecting the original car and the people that built them. Yes, sticking a big American V8 in there would have been sacrilege.
THIS vehicle embodies everything I adore in a Ferrari or any sports car.
Tight, responsive, and lightweight chassis.
Naturally aspirated, high-revving, responsive engine with a rowdy shrieking note.
Not the quickest or fastest, but a joy to drive.!!
❤❤👍🏼
I had a chance to buy a rare aluminum one for $12,000. Instead I bought this stupid Pantera. Sigh.
Don't sweat it, bro. Pantera is a beautiful car in its own right. And maybe you can adapt a driveline from the Ford GT in there.
Hopefully you bought the Pantera because you liked it more at the time and that's the right reason to buy anything. That's because you are a car guy. Over the years, Cars come in and out of fashion, I remember in the 1980's in the UK when Dino's were about £7,000 all day long, there were plenty available and nobody wanted one. At that time most people would have also chosen a Pantera over a Dino. It's only investors and speculators that would regret not buying the Dino 206 (Aluminium Body).
Jay Leno's video brought me here. What an amazing project. I hope the company receives several more such projects.
If this is regarded as a gauntlet thrown down in terms of making a work of art better
the bar has been set ridiculously high. This is outstanding.
I know people say, don't compare, but I dont know why Clarkson was obsessed with the E-type. This Dino, Miura and GT40 beat the E type easily
The dino and the 512 bb leave nothing on the table at the track for being nearly 50 years old. This car needs to be shaken down in front of a stopwatch in every way conceivable.Could it run with the a.c. and shelby cobras on track ?? I think yes...
Bravo Mototechnique!
Grazie Gerardo
I love this Dino.For me it's almost as stirring as seeing a beautiful woman in her Prime.
It feels like a Singer Ferrari car... Amazing!
The engine cover is a stunning detail on the black Dino, and the 360 wheels on the red one look wonderful even if not original. The Dino is and always will be the original super model of autos :)
We agree with you, the perspex engine cover is one of our favourite details and it works perfectly. The 360 wheels on the original prototype were a necessity at the time and are quite divisive in peoples opinions. We understand that they are a "Marmite" thing, but we are pleased that you like them. We like them too.
A perfect sports car. Fantastic. Richard Lee and this car was also a Jay Leno video too.
I was very young age and saw this Ferrari Dino most beautiful car. Take my breath away...
Fucking awesome .... ! Well done.
Several other classics can do with this.
Thank you. Yes, we can apply these upgrades to any classic car. visit our website for more details.
You are a Master ! And yes, I like the black car wheels much better . They would not fit your car ?
Thank you for your kind words. It would take a lot of time and expense to make the 17 inch Cormodora wheels fit my original Dino 3.2 Restomod. But, I really like the 360 wheels even if they are not period correct. People who don't like them can always fit what they like to their own Dinos. 😉
Absolutely beautiful. The sounds coming from the engine, the interior, the whole car is just a dream come true for any Ferrari enthusiast.
Thank you Jeanne.
A respectful and brilliant upgrade to a legend.....one of the most gorgeous cars ever, up there with the E-type and the Muira. Great job Motech!
Steve Murrell moron
Thank you for your kind words.
@@maddypalone9731 Really? Who hurt you?
Why? The modern sound kills it for me personally, but to each their own. Carburetted is a must. I'm not anti restomod, but this is a car I hold sacred.
Beautiful work, guys. Really inspiring. Now take that 328 and drop a Hemi in it! And don't forget the Cragars.
🤣
You may just set a trend! Wow! No words can do justice to this kind of perfection. It looks so contemporary! Ferrari needs to reissue this model along your lines.
"No words can do justice to this kind of perfection?" We think you just did!! Thank you for your kind words.
Vince de Simone Aren’t Ferrari rumoured to be thinking of producing a new Dino?
Fantastic car, though when I have the means I’ll ask for a version with slightly more integrated wheel arch extensions (I know I am being extremely picky). What is so wonderful is that it’s quite understated, compact, while having a decent boot for going touring.
God dam, the 246 has always been my dream ferrari, it's now this one. Bloody love it, outstanding work, up there with the singers imo. Thankyou for creating such a machine.
Thank you for your kind words. We're glad you like and appreciate our work.
@@mototechnique1282 I do like what you did, but it felt like you kinda ruined it. I don't know, it is kind of a conundrum.
Dang! I wish I could afford one these. Best restomod I have ever seen.
I’m buying one once I win the lottery.
Smart great job, the V8, the casted new wheels for the bigger break calibers, the ECU sistem, the wire throttle......absolutely awesome, you british are crazy, i love you !!!!
Mais de quel droit modifiez-vous ces originaux ? Créez des replicas alors, ce sera moins cher et surtout ça ne massacrera pas l’œuvre originale. Et ces gentes sur la "rouge", quel mauvais goût. Vous n'êtes pas Dino Ferrari, n'ayez pas cette prétention qui ruine son oeuvre.
Je suis d'accord! I agree!
Merci pour votre commentaire. Les gens modifient les ferraris depuis leur production. Nous pensons que nous avons créé une mise à niveau qui respecte la voiture d'origine et conserve son caractère et son charme d'origine. Tout ce que nous avons fait peut être ramené aux spécifications d'origine à tout moment
@@mototechnique1282 Thank you. What we think is subjective, the proof being that I think the opposite. The only objective thing is the possible return to the initial configuration.
My father owned a 246 for a long time, his job was to "inflate" the engines, but he would never have done it on a Ferrari or a Dino. A 6-cylinder 2.4 liter or a 8-cylinder 3.6 liter, already on paper is a world of difference.
Yellow wheels type 90's on the red, it is a lesser evil but it stings in "my" eyes.
Do not see my comment as unfriendly, but I liked this car so much that I have "trouble". Cordially.
-----
Merci. Ce que nous pensons est subjectif, la preuve étant que je pense le contraire. La seule chose objective est le retour possible à la configuration initiale.
Mon père a longtemps possédé une 246, son métier était de "gonfler" les moteurs, mais jamais il ne l'aurait fait sur une Ferrari ou une Dino. Un 6 cylindres de 2.4 litres ou un 8 cylindres de 3.6 litres, déjà sur papier c'est un monde de différence.
Les roues jaunes de type années 90's sur la rouge, c'est un moindre mal mais que ça pique aux yeux.
Ne voyez pas mon commentaire comme inamical, mais j'ai tellement aimé cette voiture que j'ai du mal. Cordialement.
@@omnivorace Thank you for your comment and for sharing your views. We appreciate all opinions.
Thus is indescribable. I just want one. But
Thank you
After all that trouble, you could have spelled the "I can't believe" quote from Jay Leno correctly.
Great work from Mototechnique, David Lee is a true enthusiast and generous with his time and his wonderful collection of Ferraris.
Thank you for pointing out the spelling mistake. Unfortunately its too late to change it.
Ahh if only you could fit a Colombo in it. 246 was is and always will be a beauty.. owned one in 82. For 6 months. Made it a runner and sold it. Cant trust myself.. I would daily drive it. . So low so .....lĺ
A beautiful car, ironic you removed the part that Dino Ferrari was credited with designing.......oops!
Wonder what the top speed is and 0-100 KM??
Thank you for your question. These figures are made available to the owners. Yes, it will be quicker and faster than any standard Dino, but no where near modern supercar standards. But, this car is not about numbers such as 0-100kph or top speed. Its about feel and feedback between the driver and the car, its about emotion and satisfaction of a drive that will put a smile on your face every time you get into the drivers seat and experience an analogue drive with no driver aides and its all about your personal engagement with a car tailored to your bespoke specification. This is something that is just not an optional extra on modern supercars which although have crazy engine outputs and performance figures, they are in the "real world" sterilised by all the drive aides which are needed to make them drivable and safe.
Do you really need 700-800bhp on a road car? and how many people can truly drive such a car? If you have a car that weights about 1000kgs and it has 350bhp that's about all you need to have fun. but, 0-100kph and top speed and BHP sell cars.
“Amazing that you can just get in and turn the key and it starts right up” lmao - this is why I drive a Porsche
...had the Campagnolo wheels recast... Thank you Mr. Lee.
Awh David lee video has 600k views if only people knew where it came from
The only thing I don't like is the wheel arches. Other than that it is beautiful.
Those were the factory "flare" option extensions. Yes, I agree, they look totally cheap. But because they are rare cars with them are worth more.
Thank you for your comment. The fender flares have been made to the exact period correct Ferrari specification that they produced on the Dino 246 "Flairs and Chair" model. Not to everyones taste, but historically correct.
@@mototechnique1282 thanks for explaining. Not my thing but the rest is just 😮😍
@@Pantdino thanks for sharing that.
This car is crying to be brought back with thar crazy v6 turbo from the alpha, do it ferrari
Technically not a Ferrari, but a Ferrari. Enzo's love for his son produced the most beautiful car ever built.
Mid 1976, they gave up on Dino brand and badged it and the GT4 Ferrari.
Yeah, baby!
Typical american to ruin beautiful old cars, many lack automotive culture
Wtf are you talking about, he clearly said it has a Ferrari V8, not American.
Automotive culture, lmao...are you really that stupid?
Not sure I would have used the 350 wheels.. maybe until I can get some custom BBS LM in champagne, or custom built Dino wheel. Just my opinion. I did have the opportunity to drive a couple different Dino's, should have bought one when they were not that expensive in the early 90's
On the original Dino 300bhp restomod we did not really have much choice and this is explained fully in the film. On the David Lee 400bhp car with an unlimited budget we were able to develop and update the Campagnolo originals to 17 inches to accommodate the bigger callipers and brakes.
Omg 🔥🙌❤️ the best dino resto mod ever !!!! I need this in my life !!!!
Thank you 🙏🏼
Look how pretty it is look how pretty it is... I offer 10,000 $
The Italians invented it, the English perfected it
and a Californian bought it ...
superb result, Ferrari should be inspired by it
the latest models are ugly
Thank you for your very kind observation 😂🙏🏼
Amazing sound incide a very pretty line. Perfect!!!!
Thank you
How to reduce the value of an original car to 0. Here is the example.
Beautiful work, I just don't care for the fender flares.
Thank you for your comment. The fender flares have been made to the exact period correct Ferrari specification that they produced on the Dino 246 "Flairs and Chair" model. Not to everyones taste, but historically correct.
Gorgeous and amazing work.
Thank you.
I think the ultimate Dino would have a V12 in it. Now that's got me thinking.
I love the Dino,always have done,Amazing car,wish I had the cash to own one
This is no more a Dino....
One of the most beautiful Ferraris ever
We totally agree.
Was the client Mr. David Lee? .......unlimited budget!
What an absolute beauty. You sir just made my day.
Now if you'll excuse, I need to change my trousers.
Thank you 😂
Dino was great as it originally was conceived. No need to come with modern day modifications 40 years later. What is the point? It doesn't make any sense to me.
Drive an original Dino and then our V8 upgrade and you will find that it has lost none of its characteristic. We believe that we have upgraded it with the upmost respect to the original car, but also with good taste. Original Dinos are now around 50 years old, why would you not update the power, handling and safety to modern standards whilst retaining all the charm of the original if you could? For the purists, it can all be returned back to absolute originality at anytime.
Hate restomods. There is a reason why manufacturers design new models ... so just buy them. Leave the old cars to those that want to enjoy cars how they were
Great video! Yeah I've always loved the looks of the Dino but turned off by a V6 w/ 210 hp! Yech! This changes everything!
Thank you for your kind comment.
Ferrari Dino V12 Jay Leno mods is better resale
The most beautiful and elegant of all the Ferraris. The only detraction on this machine are the ugly hoops sticking out from the wheel wells. For those who don't know, Alfredo (Dino) Ferrari died at age 24 of Muscular Dystrophy. And the Dino was the first production mid-engine Ferrari.
Thank you for your comment. The fender flares have been made to the exact period correct Ferrari specification that they produced on the Dino 246 "Flairs and Chair" model. Not to everyones taste, but historically correct.
@@mototechnique1282 Thanks for the update. I had never seen them before, only the graceful tapered flairs.
Dude... i always dreamed of building a Dino with a modern engine swaped in or retro-fitting a Motec ecu into something classic... It's just exactly what i would put my money on
We're glad you like it 😊
Do You built cars or restore old one or meaby You do both?
The customer is always right but thats a hard pass on "fly by wire" throttle.
Joshua Johnson once you’ve changed the engine, brakes, wheels, etc...why the hell not!?? ;)
❤️
It’s obviously a fantastic car, and I saw it on Jay’s show a while back. Excellent in every way. But............it needs a better exhaust. It lacks the throatiness I’m used to from Ferrari. It sounds like a Honda Civic with offset wheels and a ridiculous rear spoiler.
perfect....except for those fenders :(
LOL ///////PIMP MY RIDE LOL
I love that beautiful noise..👍👍
Good God, it's gorgeous!
Thank for your comment Sergiu.
Great job lads
Beautiful work! And this guy is a soundbite machine.
Ha, Ha, Ha. Thank you
Aw, you got rid of the Fiat engine?
This was a beautiful short film.
Bravo!
Thank you.
Bellissima nera👍
Grazie
Miss the Sound of the V6 Engine
It's a shame there's not 4 or 5 minutes of no talking and just the sound of that symphony of an engine. I love hearing about builds but TH-cam automotive blue balls without enough of just no talking and flat out driving is too common
Absolute class. Always great and inspiring to see an expert and enthusiast at work. Great video!
Thank you for your kind comments and appreciation of our work.
No class at all ruining a beautiful car like that,
Di certo questa è tra le 10 auto più belle di tutti i tempi
Grazie.
Classic cars reflect the spirit and technology of its time, they must be as original as possible. That is not a Dino, is something else. The most valuable cars for a true collector are the original ones
Thank you for your comment. If you collect cars just because you are interested in their value only, then yes have a totally original unrestored Dino, but remember that these cars are now approaching 50 years of age and there are not many unrestored original examples left. If on the other hand you would like to imagine the ultimate evolution and potential of what this wonderful design of probably one of the most beautiful sports cars of all time could be and what can be achieved in terms of speed, handling, safety, braking, feel and reliability with modern technology, whilst retaining all the characteristics of the original, then we would suggest that this could be the answer. It's not for everyone and we understand that, but we truly believe that we have created the ultimate evolution of the Dino and that it's now the car that it always had the potential to be, whilst totally respecting the original car and its philosophy.
As a Ferrari mechanic with over 40 years experience you've got my respect. I've built countless Dino's over the years but this is extraordinary . My only knock on the 246 is it's underpowered, this build has taken care of that hasn't it ? Anyway, props to you from SoCal, Cheers.
Thank you for your kind comment. It means so much when somebody with experience and knowledge appreciates and understands what we have achieved here. If you're ever in the UK please feel free to come and visit us.
Well I'm a Jet Fighter Mechanic and this thing is slow :P
Best restmod ever
Thank you. That is a very kind thing to say.
Transcendental engineering!
