20 year old Italian cars - all of the advanced features have long since been
removed, all that iron oxide has been flushed from the ballast tanks (sills,
inner wings, boot floor, front valance - was it there to make a homoligation
weight ?), the engine is at race tollerances (piston slap when cold,  pint of
oil each week).   We'll ignore the silted rad and corroded head...
