Los Gatos Ferrari License Plate Frame Part 2

So it's been a year since I shared anything in my collection. Well life gets where you are busy with so many different things that a little time is used for things needed more than sharing my collection on this blog. But since I have an updated story about the Los Gatos Ferrari License Plate Frame, which was the last story I even wrote about, I am here to share an update.

The frame sat quietly in a display case in my office for this past year and didnt get any attention other than me dusting and rearranging things to display. Then yeserday I get a message on my Speed Trap Productions Facebook Page from a gentleman searching for one to put on his Ferrari. Here is his message -

"Hi there, I hope I have the correct person.......

I'm DESPERATELY trying to source a number plate surround for a car I'm restoring.

I have been googling for a while now, and have found your details after seeing that you have restored a Los Gatos Ferrari plate surround........

Would you be interested in selling it? It's a dream to have the car finished with its original plate surrounds on......

Pretty please!!!"

I had to read this twice to get what he was asking when it hit me."

I tell him the story of how I had acquired the set which made him a little happier to have a story behind it. He then prceeds to mention that the Ferrari he is restoring is an '88 Testarossa that had originally been sold by the Los Gatos Ferrari dealership. After recieving photos of the TR and drooling for a moment I then asked this person where he resides. OGloucestershire in the UK" he replied. I then tell him that I am still thinking about it and then share a photo of the other frame on it's current owners Ferrari. He then shares more of what other vehicles he owns, as do I with what I had previously owned as we are both Chevy guys too. 

Now today after debating and sharing my story on another platform, I send him this message -

"Okay Lee! I've thought about it long enough and I don't want to keep you in the dark. Since I am a Ferrari Enthusiast, and hope to someday purchase one of my own, I am more than happy to sell my frame to you. Why? Simply for the reason you want it. It needs to go back on a Ferrari, and being that you searched and found me, which I was rather surprised, I feel that you deserve to get one back on your '88 Testarossa. 

So with that said, How Much for it are you willing to pay? Or Trade?"

He then replies -

"OMG, that is brilliant news! I'm so excited to be able to get it on the car. I'm even trying to get an old plate made for the car so it can have its us plate & us plate surround on for shows etc!"

So now that I have updated this story As of 12/01/2014 the license plate frame will be heading to a new home and placed on a car that it rightfully belongs. Thank You for reading! More photos to come of the frame on its new ride.
