Beautiful Road Ready Red 1983 Ferrari QV Cabriolet Convertible!

1983 Ferrari Mondial QuattroValvole Cabriolet -VIN ZFFMC15A9D0048197

For your consideration is my clean 1983 Ferrari Mondial QV Cabriolet Convertible — the handbuilt four seater that returned classic Pininfarina styling back to Ferrari and the quintessential four-seat Ferrari drop-top from the mid-engined 80s!

Wearing just over 39,700 miles, his car has been our family weekend cruiser for the past five years. I have the factory keys, riginal books and manuals and a good number of service records from my ownership and before. I purchased the car from a collector in the Denver area, nd prior to that it lived in the San Francisco Bay Area. It's been an absolute joy to own, ut as with many car enthusiasts my short attention-span has me looking at other opportunities to fill the garage space that this car is presently occupying...

The key major service item on these cars, nd you have doubtless read, s the four-figure five-year timing belt replacement which on this car was performed earlier this month. At the same time the mechanics addressed the following:

·Installed new German canvas soft convertible top

·Replaced spark plug wires and extenders

·Replaced engine timing belts

·Replaced tensioner bearings

·Replaced a/c compressor and alternator belt tensioner bearings

·Replaced oil temperature sensor

·Replaced shifter shaft seal and boot

·Replaced transmission oil pan gaskets

·Replaced axle seals

·Replaced oil hose to cylinder head camshaft

·Replaced camshaft seals

·Replaced air pump pulley bearing

·Replaced engine oil and filter

·Changed transmission oil

·Replaced engine air intake hose

The car does not show any sign of fluid leaks and a new battery was installed last month. The convertible top was replaced with a beautiful German canvas convertible top consistent with the high quality of a Ferrari.

On the inside, his car is in very nice condition. The interior has been refurbished andthe front seats rebuilt using sturdy padding and beautiful new supple Italian leather. They are extremely comfortable and ready for a casual cruise or a long drive to the next Mondialpalooza!

The velour carpeting is in excellent condition, nd is covered with floor mats featuring the Ferrari emblem. The dashboard is in excellent condition with no cracks or blemishes. There are no foul odors — there doesn't appear to have ever been any smoking or leaks inside. The air conditioning, ower windows, onvertible top, nd power locks all work properly. The car even comes with a Cobra theft alarm installed. The original factory radio needs repair or replacement but for me the sound of the Ferrari V8 engine has always been music enough!

Outside, he car is remarkably straight save for a few small parking lot dings. I have not seen any sign of rust anywhere on the car. The red "Rossa Corsa"paint carries a sparkling shine, nd the doors shut with the appropriate thunk. All of the lenses are in good, lear condition. The wheels are an improvement over the original TRX metric-style and there is a spare tire in the trunk along with a complete tool kit and jack.

The motor starts easily and settles to a very smooth idle. The steering functions properly, nd the 5-speed manual transmission shifts smoothly. There are no odd noises or whines from the driveline. The brakes are in good condition and do not pull. The car pulls like a freight train and achieves super-legal speeds in the blink of an eye.
