Default Ferrari Buck: Original Builders: Conversation

Carrozzeria AutoSport, located in Modena, built some original Ferrari prototypes. I met one of the owners at the classic car show in Stuttgart two weeks ago and here is a bullet-point list of what he told me. Photos show a display they had. It's a Ferrari ???

1. Built many prototypes.
2. Have many original bucks.
3. Have a large supply of old aluminum sheet of the type used on '50s/60s car and only use that when re-making panels.
4. Claims newer alloys don't weld well to original panels (Note: 'claims')
5. Only use original processes, mostly maglio (helve hammer) See photos for maglio markings.
6. Gas welds.
7. Use Eckold Handformer to shrink edges
8. www.autosport.it
