Pete J. Posted November 29, 2020 Share Posted November 29, 2020 Really looks good except for the twisted coat hanger exhaust. I need to find this one. I like it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carsntrucks4you Posted December 6, 2020 Author Share Posted December 6, 2020 1969 Thomassima III a one-off son of Ferrari Deisgner was Tom Meade. The donor car was a 1958 Ferrari 250 GT Pininfarina Coupé (chassis number 1065GT) powered by a 3L V12 engine. The gearbox was replaced with a 5-speed ZF and the brakes were upgradedThe bodywork was altered dramatically, even further than the earlier "Thomassima Zero", resulting in an extremely low, muscular, front-engined coupe featuring gullwings, twisted exhausts on both sides and centerlock wheels. Interiors were lavish, with a steel-casted steering wheel. Meade claimed to have put a particular emphasis into the finish. You can get a scale replica from CMK (1:18) or Hotwheels The correct answer were sent in by draggon Matt BAcon Thom gbtr6 Pete J.
