    Sounds like a challenge Chris, here is my list of anomalies:


    Extra handbrake type warning light on dash
    Gear knob
    Passenger side door mirror
    Exhaust system
    Ferrari badges
    Front fog lights
    Front indicators
    Air Filter
    Fuel tank breather hose
    Side indicators incorrectly located
    Black painted fuel filler caps


    How am I doing?

    Re: Not mine (I WISH), but Stratos barnfind coming up for sale with some pics.

    What Chris R says-

    Extra warning light on dash,
    Red non standard horns up front,
    Additional door mirror
    Non standard exhaust system
    Ferrari badges on nose section
    Incorrect front Fog lights.

    Some crossover here with Vince too but I'm just a slow typer
    Can I have a stab at-
    Incorrect front indicators
    Wrongly positioned side repeaters
    Front tyres look to be oversize
    Front mudflaps fitted
    I can't see any Zeus fasteners on the nose section but that might just be the camera angles.
    Dash binnacle looks to be very flat edged but again could be camera angle
    gear lever gaiter looks wrong

    Seems like so many of these have had odd maintenance done to them on an effort to just get it back on the road. Maybe they just weren't worth the investment back in the day.

    You've all got 'eagle' eyes, and you're seeing some new ones. I didn't notice the horns, and I'll have another look for dzus fasteners.
    I've seen a black gearstick knob like that before, and a similar gator, so I wasn't including either of those two. I didn't count the Ferrari stickers (why do they stick those on?) Fuel caps shouldn't be black, that's correct too.
    No, here are the 10 I'd seen:

    1. Air Box
    2. Side repeaters in wrong position
    3. Front indicators wrong
    4. Front fogs wrong
    5. Front nose badge wrong type
    6. Hazard rocker switch
    7. Extra handbrake type lamp
    8. 'BERTONE' sticker is wrong
    9. Both driver's and passenger side mirrors are wrong (that's a Beta one on the driver's side too)
    10. Exhaust

    Be interesting to see what they go for.
    I've recently heard through the Grapevine that the Stradale owned by former club member Tony Graham is shortly going up for sale in the uk with a £250k price tag. It has some history with the Stuck family, but group 4 cars were that price not long ago.

    Yep, you're right Craig, Dzus fasteners have gone missing. It's a longer list than I thought?
    The front tyres are the right size. I think they just look odd in the photo of the front compartment. I'm amazed how they found room in the front for the full spare 7.5 wheel with 205/70 tyre on the original cars.
    I've never seen a Stradale this rough. Plenty of group 4s!
