dsl ◊ 2021-02-16 01:23	Apparently 1835GT, 1960.
tw2003 ◊ 2024-02-06 11:59	According to Link to "www.goodingco.com" Chassis would be 1879GT
dsl ◊ 2024-02-06 14:06	agree 1879GT now the strongest candidate. The ref in my link to 1835GT no longer says what it did 3 years ago - can't remember what it said but seemed OK then. Ferrari Chat forum discusses several candidates, but goes for 1879GT "It is most probably 1879 GT. The same car was also used for movie stills with Audrey Hepburn and for that it had normal Roma license plates ... Both cars grey with red [interior]". Also comments "The "crash" takes place off-camera and the "accident damage" looks faked to me. Bent hood could be anything - front wheel removed and set at an angle to appear as if it has broken loose." "The crash scene definitely was "staged". There is no footage of an actual crash. My guess is the car was very carefully lifted into position with a reproduction crashed hood installed and then the scene was shot."

He sold the car soon after moving back to the US and never saw it again. It has now been recently discovered and documented as the original car belonging to RJ as well as having been the very car used in the original Pink Panther movie! FRom Robert Wagner Fan page.
