This particular car is an outstanding example, originally constructed by Barry Goldstein and Joe Alphabet of Alpha Design & Engineering in California circa the early 1980s. Who is widely regarded as one of the best 250 GTO tributes ever produced. Exterior work under the seller’s ownership included; replacement of the plexiglass headlight fairings, rear lighting lenses and chrome bezels, side markers, front fog lights and bezels, door and trunk handles, and leather hood straps. Ferrari emblems and Scuderia fender shields were added during the project, as were a fender-mounted driver-side mirror, chrome exhaust tips, and a custom-made Italian-style license plate with magnetic adapters to mount a US plate. All new working front and rear lights and signals, with a fresh repaint in the current shade of Rosso Corsa style red. Additional features include staggered-width 15” chromed reproduction Borrani wire wheels are secured by three-eared knock-offs and wear Summit Radial Trac II tires that measure 205/60R15 up front and 225/60R15 at the rear with wheel spacers and new wheel bearings. Stopping is handled by power-assisted brakes combining discs up front and finned drums at the rear, and included replacement of the master cylinder, calipers, and pads. The cabin was re-trimmed in diamond-stitched cream over fixed-back bucket seats for two, as well as over the door panels, center tunnel, footwells, and rear cargo compartment. A GTO-style dash panel with a black crinkle finish was also installed and hosts push-pull switchgear for headlights and wipers and a starter button. A custom Ferrari red ignition key was custom made with chrome prancing horse. Vintage lift latch style four-point harnesses were added during the project, as were Ferrari-branded aluminum door sill plates, a roof-mounted chrome rearview mirror, billet door hardware, a billet shift knob on a chrome rod with a custom boot, racing-style pedals, and a fire extinguisher housed in the rear compartment. The Luisi Montecarlo wood-rimmed steering wheel hosts a prancing-horse horn button and sits ahead of Veglia Borletti instrumentation including a 120-mph speedometer, a Veglia clock, and Veglia gauges monitoring fuel level, coolant temperature, and oil pressure. All working. The Veglia five-digit odometer’s reading of 90k miles reflects that of the car
