Advertisement Posted June 24, 2009 Posted June 24, 2009 Hi topoxforddoc, Take a look here Dino.... I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
stuny Posted June 24, 2009 Share #2 Posted June 24, 2009 Charlie - Exquisite in moment, tilt, composition, light, color and subject. "Dino" was named for Enzo's son, killed racing. Enzo named the non-12 cylinder cars Dino, and at this time would not have approved of "Ferrari" appearing on its flank - Just Dino. Gorgeous, though. About 1956?

Sorry Stuart, Alfredo "Dino" F. died of a kidney malfunction. He started to build a small V6 engine with appr. 1.5 ltr. -smaller than the existing 2.4 ltr. V8 engines. The only model which had no signs of the "Cavallo Rampante" the horse and the Ferrari sign was the 246 in the seventies - the poor man's Ferrari with the V6 behind the passengers.

vdb Posted June 25, 2009 Share #6 Posted June 25, 2009 Excellent capture. Bernd is correct, Dino was quite sickly for most of his life. I don't think he ever raced. Enzo never really got over his death. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

topoxforddoc Posted June 25, 2009 Author Share #9 Posted June 25, 2009 Stu, Bernd, Willy, Azzo, Virgil, Paul and Ben, Thank you very much. The 1950s cars are just unbelievably beautiful. Seeing and hearing them in full flow is fabulous - just what Enzo would have liked. He wanted his cars to be raced and not put into a museum. This was taken at the Goodwood Revival last year. I'll be there in September again. Best wishes, Charlie Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
elansprint72 Posted June 25, 2009 Share #10 Posted June 25, 2009 Serious question: when you set up one of these angled shots, do you plan it in advance, or just rotate a shot with lots of background and then crop? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
topoxforddoc Posted June 25, 2009 Author Share #11 Posted June 25, 2009 Pete, Both in short. Sometimes I hold my DMR at a tilt and pan on a tilt. Sometimes I rotate a shot with a bit of background. Depends how lazy I'm feeling. It's easier to pan the second way, but I've done both. Charlie Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ijporter Posted July 24, 2009 Share #18 Posted July 24, 2009 I agree - it's a great shot. With all the talk about the supposed absence of the name 'Ferrari' on the Dinos, the works cars 196 SP / 246 SP (of 1959 BTW), all had the prancing horse badge on the nose, as you will see this example has. They were entered by Ferrari as Ferraris. As far as I know, the first use of the 'Dino' badge was on the 246 GT road car, which the Ferrari advertising described as 'quasi una Ferrari' ('almost a Ferrari'). Ferrari also had a 4 cylinder GP (500 F2) car and sports racing cars (e.g. the 500 TRC, 500 Mondial, 750 Monza) to which the name 'Dino' was never added. The Ferrari GP cars of 1958 - 1963 were six-cylinders, and even Hawthorn's championship-winning 246 F1 car sported full Ferrari 'signage', so I don't really see the problem with the 196 SP wearing the Ferrari name on its side.

elansprint72 Posted July 24, 2009 Share #19 Posted July 24, 2009 ....... As far as I know, the first use of the 'Dino' badge was on the 246 GT road car..... Ian The first photo I can find of the Dino badge is use is the 166P sports-racer of April 1965, the photos I have do not show the traditional Scuderia shield, however contemporary photos of the 206S from 1967 show the shield but no Dino badge. Most of the prototypes for the 206/246 road car seem to have the Ferrari nose badge but Pinin's Dino Prototipo Competizione had the Dino logo. The 206 GT was the first production road car to be badged Dino this, of course, morphed into the 246GT, with the larger capacity engine and steel, rather than alloy panelwork. Just to complicate matters, here is a 206S with a Dino badge, although by 2004, when I took this at Aintree, anything could have happened! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
