Dino...


Recommended Posts

Hi Pete,

 

Thanks for all your detective work - it's always good to be better informed! I suppose it just goes to show the fluid nature of Ferrari's construction and badging of their cars! I remember you posting the Aintree shot and still marvel at the sheer beauty of those designs.

 

Best wishes,

 

Ian

Pete is spot on about the first Dino badged road car (the 206) ... maybe many do not remember that together with it, Fiat announced a Dino of its own : same engine with the famed/tragic first electronic spark control named Dinoplex: the 2 seats spider was a superb Pinin design while the 4 seats Coupè was a much less exciting Bertone design... my father had one, yellow, from the very first batch of 1967, and kept it for 3 months (of which less then 2 of use)... a masterpiece of unreliability for a car that pretended to be a family sport car...
