Unfortunately the following statement written above about the ‘Charles Bronson’ ownership is Wrong…….”once owned by legend Charles Bronson. A tough brute character actor known for his role in the movie Death Wish and others.” ***No, and no.*** People often get confused here as to WHICH ‘Charles Bronson’ is being mentioned. The ‘Charles Bronson’ that BBR mentions is a well known USA car broker, dealer, and collector of high end classic cars such as this. (I know him). BBR modeled the car as it was restored and when he owned it in recent years. This car (nor any other 365 2+2 Calif. Spider) was NEVER owned by the late actor Charles Bronson. And….. in case there is any confusion on the designation of the car…..”Monterey” refers to the location where he showed not the actual name of the car.
Sorry if I’ve come off arrogant here; just trying to set the record straight as there is often a great deal of misinformation in the model car field.
LOL, thank you the correction on ownership. Yes we’re aware the ‘Monterey’ in the title is location, back in 2007.
I should like to know where you can find this extremely beautifull car.
As far as I know, there is a Ferrari 365 California in a museum in California and this car
is not Ferrari-red, but more dark coloured (red-dark). Is this the same Ferrari ?
Was it the Original Colour or did Mr. Bronson (car-dealer) painted him more dar-red-metallic ?
