Know what you mean Trevor. Back in 1976, there was a Ferrari Daytona on a trailer in a truck wreckers near home. 365 GTB/4s were produced from '69 to '73 so it can't have been very old, but it was there, unloved, gathering dust for at least a year. I remember thinking at least once a week that I should go in and ask what the story was. It was only shortly after the 1973
oil crisis and 'supercars' were a little out of favour, but realistically, it still would have been well out of my pay-rate at the time.
Cheers,
