Man.....! You have NO idea how jealous I am of you in this moment. Nuthin' purdier that a Ferrari dressed up in Boranis. Gotta go change my drawers now. Tell Josh he done good! Great vid, sir!
Awesome video!! The sound of the “small” displacement Colombo v-12 is fantastic. One of the greatest of all time!! Oh, and the previous video of Josh’s adjusting the carbs was epic too. Good stuff!!!
I wish he had a calendar when he was going to drive it because I would be out on the curb waiting for it to come by. I live about 3 miles away from there. Nothing like the old V12.
Wow, what a car! I am in 😍. I could have heard it wrong but it sounds like it has straight cut gears for the 1st gear if I was not mistaken? Very popular feature in Italian cars of the time.
Amazing car glad he’s driving it. Still don’t understand driving gloves, but if I was gonna wear them, I suppose that’s the car that I’d wanna be in lol
Some folks have naturally sweaty hands. The gloves help maintain a sure grip on the steering wheel. Plus in the old days of wood wheels, like this car...it helps prevent splinter from a worn wheel.
Sweaty hands or not, these wooden wheels are slippery without. I don't like driving gloves but my 250 GTE I have to drive with gloves and I'm not a sweatzer.
Dan, there have got to be moments when your like, “Thank God for TH-cam and my decision to purchase a Ferrari.” If not for those two things would you have experienced something as awesome as the Lusso? Thanks for sharing and I hope wifey and Moe are ok.
@@dzikijohnny I know that fuel gets old, and if you let it sit too long, it'll cover parts of the carbuerator with varnish. I swear, in the old days, even when new carbourated cars just went out of tune whether you drove them or not. They'd be fine, but slowly would start running a little rough about a year in, no matter what. Maybe if you don't drive them, they go out of tune faster, I'm not sure.
@@cathrynm We have ethanol free fuel, and nothing in my collection sits long enough to be a problem. It's a full time job, and the pay is terrible, but to be able to enjoy all of the collection is a privilage that I humbly accept. Everything gets driven or sold.
@@cathrynm Here's something else to remember, and the GTO's that are now raced is the perfect example. Even IF you have an incident with these cars, more often than not, they are so old and things have happened, so in reality if something happens, it rarely affects the value. You send it off to Maranello and they fix it, assuming you survived what happened. The market for these cars is different than for the modern cars, and repairs etc. is just something people often consider part of the cars history with these cars.
No, far from it actually. Mcqueen's car was, and there is no way to say it nicely, diarrhoea brown with a brown interior. Kinda cool, but a bit ugly too. If you want a cool Lusso, check out the Ingrid Bergman car. Stunning.
Risk VS Reward. Should I park it? Should I drive? Every day, wake up and decide what to do. Drive an expensive car? YES. Save it for someone else to drive....no. Cars are meant to be driven, no matter what the risk. Why else would we own it?
@@cajunairman Couldn't agree more. Taking my 250 for a 1000 km trip in three days. Very beautiful car Jeff. If you don't mind me asking, is it a regular car with the 36 mm Webers or does it have the "Powerpack" with the 40 mm carbs and performance cams?
If you dated a super model, would you not fornicate with her so you can save her lady parts for the next guy? That is Ferrari owner’s mindset in a nutshell.
Such a beauty, glad to see it being driven around and not sitting in a garage for the rest of its life.
Heck yeah
Man.....! You have NO idea how jealous I am of you in this moment.
Nuthin' purdier that a Ferrari dressed up in Boranis.
Gotta go change my drawers now. Tell Josh he done good! Great vid, sir!
Thank you! Yeah I had to pinch myself
Glad you enjoyed, thanks for watching!
Yes! More car tuning/tinkering videos! That F40 wow!
Ok!
We need more owners like Jeff, sharing their love for cars with the world by driving them.
I agree
That’s such a beautiful machine. Thanks for sharing it with us.
Old car excellence, what a stunning example of 60's engineering...
Yeah rolling art!
Dan, thank you for the Lusso content! Stunning example and cool owner.
Yeah, that's a proper moment Dan. Well done!
Thank you
Wow....thank you Dan and JOOOOSSHHH (WOOOO) for this episode....amazing car
You're welcome
This might be the prettiest car I’ve ever seen!!! I can’t imagine what it looks like in person.
It's stunning
Awesome video!! The sound of the “small” displacement Colombo v-12 is fantastic. One of the greatest of all time!!
Oh, and the previous video of Josh’s adjusting the carbs was epic too. Good stuff!!!
Thank you
I think this is the same Lusso that was featured in Octane Magazine about 15 years ago. I always loved that Rubino Rosso on Cuoio configuration.
It's possible
I wish he had a calendar when he was going to drive it because I would be out on the curb waiting for it to come by. I live about 3 miles away from there. Nothing like the old V12.
Haha! I know right? Just seeing it on the road is an experience.
Absolutely love this Dan! My favorite car of all time actually being driven on the road. This is good content. It sounds so amazing!
What a beautiful car! I hope some day I will see it on the road here in Austin.
Wow, what a car! I am in 😍. I could have heard it wrong but it sounds like it has straight cut gears for the 1st gear if I was not mistaken? Very popular feature in Italian cars of the time.
It certainly has some gear whine suggesting that.
Daniel Kindly Pass My Huge Thanks to Jeff for Sharing His Beautiful Work Of Art With Us.
Absolutely A Treat To Hear It Running.
🥰🥰🥰
Can’t wait to see it in the wild! I love his enthusiasm for the car, especially considering what else he has.
Right?
Fantastic color! Great episode!
Thank you and yes! Love the color
Nice job, Dan. Listening to that Colombo engine was incredible. I also got a kick out of the guys discussing things at the end. That was great.
Yeah that just came about naturally
Automotive art in its greatest form!😍
What a car and what a sound :) thanks Dan
You're welcome
You can have all the Enzo and Merci you want, this is my dream car!
Yeah I would rock this
These cars have more style in one wheel spinner than an Enzo or Murci will ever have.
wow! I love that he drives it! Bravo to him for the courage!
Hell yeah!
Courage?
Great looking and sounding car!
The sound is incredible
Amazing, thanks for sharing
You're welcome
There's a fitting saying , They don't make them like they use too
What a stunning beauty the rear three quarters view of thing is everything I ever thought was cool. Soooooo good Dan!
Thank you
That car sounds great!!
Heck yeah
Should have titled the video “Italian tuneup in $2M dollar 1964 Ferrari 250 Lusso”
Love it Dan... As organic as it comes...
Thank you
That’s more interesting on the daily upkeep of a vintage Ferrari. Thanks Dan , Meg, Mini Moe and Mo 😹🙏✌️
You're welcome
Just another “normal guy”....and his $2M super car. 😂
Amazing car glad he’s driving it. Still don’t understand driving gloves, but if I was gonna wear them, I suppose that’s the car that I’d wanna be in lol
Some folks have naturally sweaty hands. The gloves help maintain a sure grip on the steering wheel. Plus in the old days of wood wheels, like this car...it helps prevent splinter from a worn wheel.
They help when steering wheels are incredibly hot as well. Wooden wheels in particular get very hot.
Any of his cars with wooden steering wheels are driven with gloves.
The wood steering wheels are really hard to keep a grasp of without the leather. Especially because I sweat like a beast!
Sweaty hands or not, these wooden wheels are slippery without. I don't like driving gloves but my 250 GTE I have to drive with gloves and I'm not a sweatzer.
So many fantastic noises in this episode 🥰🥰🥰🏎
Heck yeah
Sweet Jesus that F-40 🤤
Yeah I know
this car just oozes cool. it's so fucking pretty
Better than James Deen cool
Twelve 250cc Ducati motorcycle pistons going round and around! Or is it Ferrari pistons in Ducati's? LOL Sounds pretty sweet, as some would say.
Lol yeah they're pretty small little cylinders
Borgo made them all...perhaps the original engineer is the only one whom would know for sure?
Dan, there have got to be moments when your like, “Thank God for TH-cam and my decision to purchase a Ferrari.” If not for those two things would you have experienced something as awesome as the Lusso?
Thanks for sharing and I hope wifey and Moe are ok.
Yeah I had to pinch myself quite a few times that day.
Dan you are a lucky son of a gun to live where you do and have the friends you do that they will share the things they have.
I must say I could never have imagined my current life 5 years ago.
WOW What a car there is nothing in the world like Ferrari man! Sounds beautiful!!
Thanks!
that exterior+interior combo is my dream spec lusso👌🙌
What a car!, that was tremendous, can we do the whole garage!, really good👍🇮🇪
Hopefully we will
Beauty! Hop a plane and come out on Farther’s Day 🏖
Beautiful!
Yes sir
WOW
I think I'd be nervous driving a $2M car, that's just too precious. $100K/$200K no problem, but $2M? i don't know.
I was wondering how much. 😩
Well it needs to be driven so... Might as well

Love that colour is it Rosso Metallizzato or Rosso Vinaccia?
I believe it is Amaranto
@@exoticpower8073 that’s not a Ferrari red according to tinternet?
@@alamosabill201 It is, it came in 2 known color codes: 19379 or 20153
@@exoticpower8073 CORRECT!
like it! like it! like it!.
Yay
I’ll take one body mold of that baby, PUHLEASE!!!
Of its time
the sound of our people.
Haha yes
Is that the ex steve mcqueen 250 GT Lusso ? Looks like the same color
No, far from it actually.

Me too
