Rare Metals at Ricambi America?


Well, its not exactly rhodium or palladium, but we did get two very cool, very hard-to-find Genuine Ferrari parts into inventory at Ricambi America today. First, is a matched set of original 348 Competizione exhaust manifolds. I'm not quite sure what the difference from a standard 348 manifold might be (probably dimensions and sampling ports), but it's pretty amazing nonetheless that something like this still exists!

Huh? You didn't know that a Competitzione version had different manifolds? Actually, in our visual parts diagram you can see the references to the difference countries and versions of Ferrari manifolds: 348 Exhaust System (shown as part #23)

The second 'rare metal' that we received today is a wheel nut for a Ferrari 512BB. Although we at Ricambi America don't specialize in the classic Ferraris, when I saw this available for a nice price, it was too hard to pass up! We'll just pop it onto the shelf and see what happens.



Assuming everything goes smoothly with FedEx Customs tonight, I'll have an amazing Ferrari diagnostic computer in my hands tomorrow morning. :)
