Sorry for that mate....I will not do it again
There is a sign of Ferrari on the front BTW
You mean that this car had be designed by someone and it is just use a Ferrari engine??
It was built by Ferrari and the name Dino comes from Enzo Ferraris tragically dead son. However the "Dino" name is not exactly a Ferrari in the same aspect that Pontiac isn't a Chevy it was supposed to become a separate brand targeted at the cheaper lower upper class(if that makes sense) but never really panned out. Also from the start of the 308gt4 production in 1973 up till 1976 the Ferrari badge was not on the front of the car instead was a Dino badge, the Ferrari badged cars are called series II cars. this is however a very hotly debated topic in the Fcar world so take everything i say with a grain of salt.

Thanks for the information mate....I knew about his son but i thought that he named just some of his cars as ''dino''That's why is the badge of Ferrari badge on that one because it is a 77 model....
Thanks again mate,everyday you learn a different thing....
Sorry again for my mistake : )

Hence the Fiat Dino!!
Pampos - did you do 2 separate compounding steps (cutting pad & PFW)over the entire car or just in spots? Looks really nice.

Some spots(large spots ) are so damaged that the PFW or Orange cutting pad is not enough to remove the scratches....Also i found that i can remove the wool pad's marks with PFW than with Orange pad....So i can say that this process is for the entire car because the heavy damage is on the most surface of the car....
The scratches look to me like sanding marks BTW
As for that model somebody told me that it is based/similar with Lancia Stratos...
And thanks BTW
