That'll buff out. All joking aside, it's pretty cringe-inducing seeing the bodywork scuff and bend like that. It may have replica body panels, but it's still a Ferrari 250 Testarossa.

IIRC the same owner has had the car since the 50's and when he got it it had a Chevy V8 in it.

No wonder the poor TR keeps trying to commit suicide.

Nice to see the car used! I would much prefer to see a few creased body panels than it be sat in a climate controled barn!

It'll panel beat out. And he'll do more damage to it next year.

Good on him.
