Cool name for a car I reckon!

Not identical, but pretty damn close...

Yeah,
Just under 1000 HP at sea level, not bad for a little Suzi...
Set the record in this car in 2007, still unbeaten.

1950 Ferrari 166 MM Touring Barchetta
Owner: Manny and Juanita Del Arroz, Diablo, Calif.

This is the only unrestored example of Ferrari's rare 166 Mille Miglia Touring Barchetta, or "little boat." Just 25 Barchettas were built with the two-liter, V-12 engine, and they were very successful, winning at the Mille Miglia and Le Mans in 1949. The winning driver at Le Mans was Luigi Chinetti, who also happens to be a previous owner of this particular car. It spent most of the last 40 years resting untouched in the Arizona desert. It has since been disassembled and cleaned in the process of being returned to running order.

chassis number 0052 M

During the rebuilt of the engine, important and startling discoveries were made. The engine was actually a Formula 2 unit rather than the regular 166 MM engine. The car had been raced extensively during its early existence. It was driven by Luigi Chinetti, Lord Selsdon, Jean Lucas, Dorino Serafini, and Giovanni Bracco at venues such as the 24 Hours of LeMans, Nuerburgring, and the 12 Hours of Paris. The large hood scoop gave the engine better breathing abilities and the large red brake drums provided superior stopping power.
