Base color is PPG 704C Grigio Titanio Metallic and the stripe is 703.C.97 Canna Di Fucile Metallic both from the Ferrari catalog.
So how do you want me to list it? I don't think there's room for that, and I don't have an Italian keyboard either!

Dan, that is one beautiful car! I remember we PM'd about something or other while it was being built, and Mike outdid himself.

In the interest of simplicity, I'm just going to lave it as "red" on my chart, those who have re-vamped and improved on my primitive effort are welcome to add the specifics.

Titanium or grey. Grey is not silver.

Just thought I'd bump this one back to the top. Seems every week or so there's another '64 owner showing up in some thread or other, my off-thread list is over 70 '64's represented here. Feel free to check here if you haven't already.

My Dec. 5, 1963 built 64. Matching numbers L-76 drivetrain sits resting in the shop. Currently a Blueprint Motors 396 SB stroker with 517 HP takes its place. Originally white with black interior, I swapped colors. 67 Stinger for carburetor clearance.

Those wheels are perfect for that car.

Been drawing from the RRB 10 1/2 years now. 44 years between my first day and my last.. Once in a while I miss it for a few minutes, but then some work on the Corvette makes the railroad leave my mind. If they allowed part time RR work I would put in a few days a month just for the fun of it, but they don't so I don't!

Here is my 64 that I enjoyed for many years and sold. Here is me driving it onto the open car carrier, in the snow, and it was going to California!
The driver looked into the car and asked if it was a stick, I said yes and he said he doesn't drive stick! So I made sure all the papers were signed before I drove it up onto the trailer.




Here is my 'new' 64 Fuelie, which I purchased on 12/6/21 and flew back up north 12/11/21, so I didn't get to spend much time with it.
I will be going back down soon to enjoy it.

How can you be in the car-hauling business and not know how to drive a stick?

Nice replacement! It appears black, or is it Daytona Blue?

I guess you depend on the owner to load the car for you.
Yes it's Daytona blue. Gorgeous car!

Yes it is Daytona blue with dark blue interior.
I was a little apprehensive driving it up the ramps, it was wet and slippery. I had to get a running start to get it up onto the trailer.

I don't think I've seen this one out and about in The Woodlands. I'll be sure to keep an eye out for it as I would like to see it up close.
