People made these swaps frequently back in the 70s and 80s because it was hard to find mechanics who could work on European cars, and the cost of maintaining this car's original V-12 was probably very steep! In other words, someone who previously owned this car couldn't really afford to own this car. But it's still very, very nice.
That is very nice. The V-12s are lovely, BUT they don't last, they leak, they smoke they cost billions to rebuild and even then they leak, they smoke, they need tuning, they are not even that powerful. LS swap all the way 😀 LS is cleaner as well, do it for the planet.

Wow. Nice car. Wish I needed it.
Sadly soon all gas cars will be forbidden!!!!
Good job ..
you could end up in jail because Ferrari could claim a bogus car
Could have put an Opel 6 in it and turned it into a Bitter SC.
or a Fiat 130 3200 V6 than it turned into a 130 Coupé
I love it

The V12 sucked and were slow
@@Schlipperschlopper By today's standards, yeah.

Teh Jaguar V12 are even worse....they were made in India and dropped valve seats!
@@Schlipperschlopper
"they were made in India"
- Were they ?
Where's the evidence for this ?
Utter sacrilege.
I guess the owner also puts ketchup on their pasta and pineapple on their pizza.
Side vew mirrors are hideous
I’m sorry but a Ferrari without Ferrari engine in it, lost his value.
True. Having said that if the engine is destroyed it could be a good option
@ yes. It’s the common option. I don’t think will be easy to find the exact original engine. And it will not cheap at all
