    Sharon Tates 1967 Ferrari

    Does anyone know what 1967 model Ferrari the late actress Sharon Tate drove? The car was given to her by Roman Polanski.

    The Red Ferrari: Roman gave the Ferrari to Dad and he drove it.
    Dad eventually sold it a neighbor who was a collector and he restored the Ferrari to mint condition. The neighbor drove the car for many years but unfortunately he ended up totalling it.

     ... still no model - but somehow interesting

    This is a beauty, I love it! I bet BMW tried to imitate it with the Z series.

    This "double - wave" side line, is the classic line of all dream cars! 911, Z3/Z4, etc. etc.... even the edgy Gallardo has this double hips!

     That's a cool little tidbit, Jim. I wonder if she was exceptionally pretty in person up close. 

    She might have been on her way to film one of her bit parts on the Beverly Hillbillies with Jethro.

    18.  Her 275.  While that was a great ride the one that was even more interesting was the time "Iron Butterfly's" tour Bus pulled over and gave me a ride up the PCH.
