Default Nice Divers/Ferrambo vid



Nothing exciting, but if you haven't heard it running, here it is.

What you get to have built when you've sold your winch (not girls!) company...

Every time I look at this car (still for sale at Divers) I'm more impressed.

Charley should buy it so it could do Power Tour!!

Weird, what my eyes see and my ears hear are confounding me. When it's not surrounded by the beautiful Ferrari bodywork, it just kinda sounds like a Rambler with a straight six and no muffler, akin to a Honda Prelude with a fart can. Maybe it'd help if it was singing it's sweet italian music at 8K. LOL! Trust me, I know my exotics, used to own an Esprit and spent alot of time hanging out with 'those' guys.

I really like that car. And the Caddy looks pretty cool too. I need to go out there one day if I can and see what they have in the shop.

I just emailed him - think maybe the Ferrambo is off the market maybe...

If the Minotti that Craig Lang had him build wasn't a windowless version - it'd be a nice car to have. But he built it with "roadster" doors - Craig drove it to Windover and back - and had him put some side glass in the doors - but it's not roll ups - so you either have to have them "in" or "out". In the Pacific NorthWET -- that just doesn't work for me. But it's a killer car for certain!

Interested in what you find out on that Greg.

Awesome looking Caddy.

I'd also be interested in the details on the build of that beautiful convertible in the vid.

The Caddy is beyond killer -- a REAL 57 Caddy Eldorado with the stainless steel roof! Suicide doors with NO POST between them... and a big azz GM diesel for power... it's just way kool.

I see too many cars on any given week - to remember all the details of each one - but think the drop top you're referring to is a 39 that is being totally reworked. Maybe I'll get up there next week and see where it's at. Last time I was up there they also had a pretty cool El Camnio being done. I just LOVE the metal work - and love to go to shops that are doing real metal work... These guys have some serious "vision" and skills.

Agree on the Caddy. In the vid I believe Tim said its 1 of 400 made.

Vision and skills...great combo.

Always have liked Ferrambo since I knew of its existence. That Caddy looks mean just sitting there too. Is there any more info it available. Maybe current build pictures or something?

Here is a link to Divers Streetrods

There are a bunch of build pics of it. Pretty impressive piece.. and to think they're cutting up such a rare beast.
