This car was owned by Louis Betstadt from Rochester N.Y. until around 1986 when he sold it to Barbara Ferrell also of Rochester, N.Y. She kept the car garaged in rochester N.Y. and also in Massachusetts for a while and drove it frequently until I bought it from her in Dec. 2006. The car now resides with my other two '65 Spider Veloces in Hingham, MA. the car is mostly original but has undergone a refresh some time ago with one paint re-spray and new interior. It still has the original padded dash and all the original "Veloce" parts. It runs quite well, no smoke no 2nd gear synchro issues. Tom Lesko 7/2008
