Anna Nicole Smith

[Werner333]

Zoals jullie weten ben ik ook lid van een Ferrari mailing groep.
We houden ons bezig met chassis nummers en of een wagen nu al dan niet een replica is volgens de originele tekeningen.
Dit is wat achtergrond voor de volgende discussie die ontsond naar aanleiding van het feit dat haar ex-echtgenoot enkele oude Ferrari's had.

Elke nieuwe boodschap is weergegeven door een nummer.
Zoals jullie kunnen merken nemen we de dingen zeer serieus.

#1
Anna Nicole Smith is an ex Playboy fold out who relieved a
90 year old Texas billionaire of much of his money then
inherited the rest when he died.
Court battles still in progress.

#2
To amplify somewhat on what David said about Anna Nicole, and as
you're a Doctor, I'm sure you'll understand the following medical
jargon... Anna Nicole had rather ENORMOUS after-market headlights...

#3
To add to the gaiety, Anna Nicole is also kind enough to dress so those
aftermarket headlights have independent front suspension.

#4
And to throw in some car slug jargon, she also had an automatic reset on
her odometer!

Click the button (you know what button) and the mileage (you know what
kinda mileage) went to zero!

And if you "don't know", it's too late to explain!

#5
So.. does she have them aligned according to factory specifications, with
positive camber, or have they been set up for better handling, bearing in
mind the roll stiffness of the non-independant rear end?

#6
As in all matters relating to factory specifications, authenticity
and/or anything involving a technical inspection and/or the analysis of
test data, test drives, track tests and hot lap analysis, I defer all
comments and answers to our on staff engineer and his factory
manuals and drawings.

Who could possibly argue against Anna Nicole and other similar models
being true to the original Factory drawings?

I believe the consensus of this group is that the factory drawings are
NEVER wrong nor has any road or racing version of the Tipo Anna Nicole
been built in deviation to the aforementioned original Factory drawings.

I do, however, believe the rear end on this particular example is fully
independent, and features fully adjustable spring rate, bump and
rebound.

However past analysis has proven me to be consistently wrong, so... it
can be taken as gospel that the above comment is inaccurate.

I understand that test time is available with this model and other
similar models from this Tipo, but at very high rates and with no
guarantees that the leaser will qualify.

#7
One thing's for sure:

There are lots of replicas out there!

#8
I checked the factory drawings for Tipo Anna Nichole and they definitely
specify a live rear end with a low bump stiffness.

The hire model you refer to might have been modified from another Tipo.

#9
Having met my share (and then some) of the hire models I assure you they
were not all built from the same factory drawings.

Specifications, prices and mileage vary tremendously.

They can usually be spotted (no serial numbers, to date) near Limos,
Lear jets, beach front estates and very expensive hotels.

These observations are made only from a discreet distance, of course.
