    There's a lot of "how was the original done?" type questions that can be answered by the photographs, or perhaps not going by what Chris implies...

    Not including the colour coded spoilers and the re-trimmed seats, I can see 10 things that are not as standard for a Stradale.

    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.
