We’re still buzzing from all the craziness that was Monterey Car Week 2018, from the parties, to the auctions, to the racing, to the always-awesome Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance. It’s all pretty overwhelming, to be honest. Pretty much anywhere you go in Monterey during Car Week, you’ll find high-end machinery that elicits a sense of lust and admiration - and this 1972 Ferrari Dino is no different. Making the scene last week at The Quail, A Motorsports Gathering, this black Italian icon is called the Monza 3.6 Evo, and it’s unlike any Dino you’ve ever seen.

Created by well-known Ferrari collector David Lee, the Monza 3.6 Evo is an amalgamation of new and old, combining a classic Dino body with a slew of upgrades that take it a whole new level. Mounted just behind the cabin, the Evo draws its power from a Ferrari F40 block that’s naturally aspirated and bored to 3.6 liters. Put your foot down, and this thing emits a truly jaw-dropping sound. Outside, the gorgeous Dino body was also upgraded, this time with plus-sized wheels and reshaped fenders that give it a unique, yet understated factory-style aesthetic.

Put these things together with upgraded suspension bits, new brakes, and other high-end goodies, and the result will have you floored, guaranteed.
