Ferrari 275P #23, for the 1964 Sebring 12 Hour community build

[Misha]

It seems that the Labour Day long weekend heralds the  return to building as the outside chores diminish. Couple of days ago I tidied the workbench as I have been away from it since my March heart attack during which time I haven’t picked up an x-acto or brush. So I looking forward to seeing your work on the Ferrari and getting back into building myself. 
Cheers Misha

Were you aware that the 275 prototype was re-used as the mulo for the Ferrari Enzo?

There is a little history with that sticker. Terlingua was a place that Shelby and alot of other race car drivers, politicians, magazine writers friends would go to let it all out without public interference. Bill Neale designed the yellow logo. The black rabbit figure was a symbol to Shelby for no more hot spices in the chilli . As you all know Shelby had a great chili recipe. Cannot remember what the other symbols were. I think the three feathers were the 3 local tribes there. I actually talked to Bill Neale about that symbol many years ago at the 95 Shelby meet at laguna seca that year. I used to vintage race my 66 Shelby there. Later it turned into a boys ranch to help kids with no parents. I believe the terlingua chilli cookoff still goes on today.
