Kinja'd!!!

I love these kind of car books with tons of detail and photos and engineering drawings and crap. I nerd out wit it.

I was bummed out because I assumed it was missing the poster but here it is it was tucked in the back of the cover. Banana for scale.

And the back is even printed the ferrari logo. and each logo is different like its a scan of the actual blueprints and the original prancing horse was stamped on the back as each has a different pattern.

Kinja'd!!!

Here is why I love books like this. Huge quality photos. I may never see one in person so its nice to have large photos to notice all the details and welds and fasteners and stuff like that.

Kinja'd!!!

Thank you for joining me on this geek journey.

Two copies on eBay, one asking $350 one $450. I can’t find any sold listings though, so I don’t know what it’s actually ‘worth’.

Abebooks, which is basically Amazon for used book stores, has six copies between $250–$600. Mind, this is a site where you can pick up books printed in the 19th century for $10. I’m willing to bet he could get $150-$200 easily just by virtue of undercutting the others.

yeah I assume those people asking those prices are crazy. I don’t even know why they put those kinds of prices on stuff.
