Hi, it's a 400-series Ferrari (possibly a 412?)

Welcome to the forum!

Dane,

You are just totally out of touch! Don't you know that any car older than 3 years from new is vintage?

Yep, 400i, don't think it's a later 412 but not certain. Circa late 70's 'vintage' probably!

Even less if you look in at some of the 'so called' classic car shows these days.

Robert - I don't have the details to hand, however American and European classifications are different.

On your side of the pond you have additional groups such as 'Brass Era' for example, not to mention your Classic, Vintage and Veteran date ranges differ from ours.

I'm sure someone here will have the details your looking for, but I thought I would just add to the conversation. Wink

Looking at your signature - are you a trader?
