Photoshoot: 1947 Ferrari Corsa Spyder, oldest complete Ferrari in existence
At the Oregon Coast Exotic Car Show we were all fortunate enough to get a up close and personal tour of one of the rarest cars in existence, the oldest complete Ferrari, the 1947 Ferrari 166 Corsa Spyder owned by a James Clark from Vancouver, WA. His father originally bought it for $3800 and passed it on to his son who spent years restoring the car. It truly is a pristine example of how a vintage car should be restored and he plans to pass it on to his son who has already promised to keep it. I had a few moments to take pictures of this beautiful (and LOUD) machinery.
A little history on the car: 1947 Ferrari Corsa Spyder

That Corsa above is simply stunning. Never seen a car with a gear knob that featured roman numerals, either.
BTW, is there something about Grzegorz's photos that don't allow resizing? Every other picture in this thread & the other resizes except for his.

</center>“Every twenty years we like to take the engine out and just check everything over,” says Jay Leno as he stands in front of the engine of his McLaren F1. The 627 horsepower naturally aspirated V12 is an impressive setup–the whole drivetrain, including the transmission, weighs less than 500 pounds. He shows us the ultra compact $40,000 exhaust system. The ethonal in the US gas has taken a toll on the fuel cell, so it needed to be replaced.
