Interesting modifications
By Ron Honig
WaytooFurious
Over the years I have seen some pretty interesting modifications that people have made to their cars. There have been weird 4wd conversions, people using arm chairs to replace car seats and the use of gaffer tape to cover rust, which is still one of my personal favourites. However I am still puzzled by a modification that I saw on a Ferrari about a year ago at a car show. I was surprised to see that the owner had added a tow bar to his prancing stallion. So what do you tow with a Ferrari? Have you seen any strange car modifications recently?

Nes, maybe This Guy has been taken to the cleaners by his ex wife and can’t afford so much as a push bike now that he has had to buy the Ferrari again amongst his other possessions. And beside maybe I like driving my Ferrari but not a truck.

I use that towbar to tow a low line, aluminium bodied, centre lock wire wheeled, disc braked, independent suspension trailer with one or two of my four Vincent HRD motorcycles on. It was used mostly when my son was too young to travel long distances behind me on one of the Vincents. Now its used sometimes when we want to take two of the Vincents to a rally some where. Another couple of years and he will be riding one of them. Just this week I covered 800 miles with an Ariel Square Four in the trailer, taking it interstate and back as the Ariel wasn’t registered. So you see there is a well required use for it.

Yeah Paul you make a point! A lot of Mustangs and Miatas have the hitches to carry their tires to the track, but the keyword there is Mustangs and Miatas. This guy owns a Ferrari which means he should afford a truck for the hauling.

You tow your tire trailer to the track, obviously. I’ve seen everything from Mustangs to Miatas with hitches for exactly this reason.

I’m guessing it was posted on the blog at some point, but its a classic nonetheless.
