The car is still not listed on any registries. No one knows where it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TTQ B4U Posted November 21, 2013 Report Share Posted November 21, 2013 Negative. The car is still not listed on any registries. No one knows where it is. Just quoting what I thought the story implied. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coltboostin Posted November 21, 2013 Report Share Posted November 21, 2013 Full resto would be nice, but the story just stays as odd and convoluted as this thread. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coltboostin Posted November 21, 2013 Report Share Posted November 21, 2013 That is the car, plate even says dug up. Been registered for awhile I think your confused-This quote is from 1978 Afterward the young mechanic moved the Dino and himself out of the garage on Burbank Boulevard without leaving a forwarding address, Then he or parties unknown perfectly completed the Dino's impossible restoration. Duly registered and newly licensed [with vanity tags reading "DUGUP"] by California's Department of Motor Vehicles, the buried Dino next was returned to what I hope is high speed play out on L.A.'s kinking boulevards and across our endless and flat out four and five laners.P From Today- More than 30 years after it was found, the dirty Dino remains unlisted on any Dino registry. That's not to say it's not somewhere out there. Indeed, it just may be. The picture you provided is of "a" Green 246, not necessarily "the" 246GTS which seems to be MIA in 2013. If you Google Image search "DUG UP Ferarri", you get 2 pictures of a green 246 GTS (along with 5938652 other pics), neither of which shoe the plate "DUG UP. In fact, you also get a picture of this. http://media-cdn.tripadvisor.com/media/photo-s/04/20/81/08/ferrari-s.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrendanB Posted November 21, 2013 Report Share Posted November 21, 2013 Yep the car was recovered a few years after it was buried and it's been in the same hands since then. Video Jalopnik did on Drive was very good, interesting story on that car for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
