Default F50 Baby Pictures

When the F50's were delivered to the first owner, a set of build pictures was included with every car. Most of the sets long ago disappeared but I was fortunate enough to find a F50 that still had the pictures with it. They are:

That's awesome. It just makes you feel so much more in tune with the car. Remember my post about rebuilding the Jeep? It is just such a special feeling seeing the car being put together from scratch. Even more special when you did it yourself.

Wow. Great Pictures That really does just make the car just that more special when you can see how it was built. Thanks for sharing!

They are fantastic, there must be very few cars out there with that sort of history.
As an added bonus, it could also double up as a DIY take your car to bits and re-build it manual

Really cool Boxer, I found out about that about 2 years ago that Ferrari did that when my uncle bought his 430. He has the build pictures and a book and all the info on it being built. I didn't know they did that. It's pretty cool. Did all Ferrari's have this ?

And do not forget that you should even receive a pair of shoes in a bag (F50 shoes). No joke but they came with it. Ah and a originally signed chassis number build sheet confirmation by Luca di Montezemolo.

Wonderful photographs, Boxer.

I am afraid that I did not get the F50 shoes, then again after a couple of owners and ten years, that might be a good thing

I agree, I don't think I would want shoes that had several owners after 10 years

Sorry guys, totally wrong. You should be ready to gasp even the smell of the shoes as long as its labeled "F50". This is enthusiasm

That is true...If I had shoes that were F50...and I had the car, the shoes would have to be pretty foul to take the smile off of my face
