I know it is sold but is it really real? http://www.ferraris-online.com/cars/1083/1083a.html

Yes it is real.
I met the owner last year a Barrett-Jackson and it was a beautiful car. It was the last aluminum body made in 1969. So he said. It had no race history but had all the good stuff. Gurney heads ZF etc. Nice to see he got his price. The reserve was 450,000 but the car only went up to 375,000 and did not sell.

Aluminum ?

Was early modified in Brazil, quite some...
Looks like now having non original gearbox, steering wheel, exhaust system etc...etc..
Modified with new/modern parts to vintage race it more "easyly"..(sp)
Some cars get´s to "altered"
Hope this does´nt.
Have alway´s been in quite good shape.
I hope the last "tub" resto was care fully made...
Looks great...
