So, Ferrari had a complete new Boxer frame body they never finished into a car?

Is that possible?

9000 GBP for it, build your own Boxer

You'd better snag it, for spares!!!!!


Ferrari UK has a surprising stash of original unused bits, so I'd say "Sure"........

Default It's tempting, I have too

It's tempting, I have too many cars already and for $18k for something you may need that will just take up space and get banged around doesn't seem wise.

20 years from now people would wonder why someone didn't grab it now for so cheap, it would probably take at least another $100k in new and used parts if you could even find all of them to make a real car, even with a cheap donor car that would require rebuilding of parts it would still be very expensive or a fire damaged Boxer.

But then would it still be a pure Ferrari since it was not built in the period by the same craftsmen at Modena?

Default Very tempting, but agree with

Very tempting, but agree with Jeff. Build it out and you may have a "Kit car" stigma attached to it. Might be better to cut it up and use the pieces for crash damage repairs. With the exchange rates on the dollar, it might not be reasonable to do that either. My mind wanders to a hot rod track day car.
