Haul your horses with this Ferrari 412 pickup conversion | Hagerty Media

[Hagerty]

Alright, hauling entire horses might be a bit much, but you can certainly haul some feed for your horses with this thing. As far as pickup conversions go, we certainly didn't have a 1985 Ferrari 412 on our bingo board of possible candidates.

Another answer to a question no one asked.

Just because you can, doesn't mean you should.

That bed bottom is clearly not real teak boards--probably vinyl. That tacky bit--along with the inept and cheap aluminum edging of the "upper bed" (?) should be and indication of the level of workmanship here. That should lower the price another 10 grand, at least

[merlebalke]

Watch the show, not vinyl, it is teak.

[SuperCommando]

have not watched the show, but hoping that this was a basket case for a starting point. with a Chev engine its a big nope...probably gave up the Columbo to make another Ferrari live...maybe?

[LamboEd]

This may be Red but it is no longer a Ferrari...... I wonder where the V12 went?
Whoever did this should be serving 20 years in the insane asylum.
That being said, I wonder what it will go for at auction, IF there are any bids!

Did anyone else think Fiat X1/9 on steroids when they first glimpsed this?

And in 60 years, the most valuable of the series.

The creative ways people screw up vehicles never ceases to amaze me. And, these hammerheads are glorified in a tv show. At least they started with a slushbox 412.

[Greg_I]

Anyone else getting vibes of this thing being like a failed Top Gear project car?

Another case for making abortions illegal (unless the mother's life is in danger)

[hyperv6]

While not my taste this is no major loss.

The 412 is not one of the more popular cars and would cost so much more to restore back original than it is worth.

Just because it says Ferrari does not make it a wise investment.

Many an exotic is just parted out or scrapped as it is not practical to restore do to rust or lack of market.

If this custom was not done odds are good it would just be parted out, scrapped or still sitting rotting.

El Cavallino?

[merlebalke]

The car was purchased for around $6800. The Chevy V-8 was already in place, but it lacked a windshield and the paint was very crappy black. Personally I think it's kind of cool.

[Geok86]

It’s definitely weird, but the worst part for me, is the dual snorkel air intake through the hood....I’m actually ok with the rest of it...at a cheap enough price that is.

[Historian]

Weird, but I like it!

A few years back a neighbor of mine was working on a friend's Chevy Cavalier Wagon that had been converted similarly to this. The Cavalier looked better and actually looked useful as a car and to move things, this conversion looks like neither. Also who in their right mind cuts a hole in the hood of a Ferrari?
