[carsthatnevermadeitetc]

Abarth SE 030, 1974, by Pininfarina. A racing prototype based on the Fiat X1/20 project that became Lancia's Montecarlo. The SE 030 was powered by a mid/rear mounted 3.2 litre version of the Ferrari-built Dino 120º V6 as fitted to Fiat's 130. The car was entered in the 1974 Giro d’Italia crewed by Giorgio Pianta and Cristine Becker, it took second place overall, behind a Lancia Stratos.

1967 Ferrari Dino 206 Competizione Competition Berlinetta

Alfredo 'Dino' Ferrari was credited with the design of the Ferrari V6 engine. With help from the legendary engineer Vittorio Jano, Dino influenced Enzo Ferrari's decision to produce racing cars in the 1950s powered by V6 and V8 engines. 

Enzo Ferrari was hesitant to adapt the mid-engine layout for his customer cars, fearing they might be unsafe. He eventually relented and Sergio Pininfarina was tasked with designing a mid-engined concept for the 1965 Paris Motor Show, but demanded that it wear the Dino badge alone. At the Turin car show in 1966, the Dino 203S was well receipted and production soon followed.

The production Dino 206GT had many updates, modifications and changes such as softer edges and curving lines typical of earlier Italian cars. The 2-liter all-aluminum engine was transversely-mounted mid-ship and offered 160 horsepower. The V-6 engine featured dual overhead camshafts and 9.7:1 compression ratio. The crankshaft featured four main bearings with induction via three Weber 40 DCN/4 2-barrel carburetors. The frame of the 206GT was made from lightweight aluminum and fitted with full independent suspension. Disc brakes could be found at all four corners. The wheelbase of the car measured a short 90-inches. Top speed was a very impressive 146 mph. In total, there were only 152 examples built during 1968 and 1969.

This unique prototype followed the Dino 206 racing cars that raced at Le Mans and were powered by the Dino V6 engine. First seen at a 1966 Ferrari press conference, the standard 206 was bodied at Piero Drogo's Carrozzeria and featured light alloy bodywork and a semi-monocoque chassis. Only 18 were built, so the model was restricted to the Group 6 prototype class. This one-off 206 chassis, built by Ferrari, then went to Pininfarina to receive a new custom body. The plan was to use race-car engineering in a road-going supercar; it used an engine from one of three Dinos that raced at Le Mans in 1966. Designed by Paolo Martin, the car was shown at the 1967 Frankfurt Auto Show as a 'Dino' Berlinetta Prototype Competition, to much acclaim. Pininfarina preserved the car in their private museum until 2006, when they offered the current owner the opportunity to purchase the car and become its first owner.

The Dino 246 was the first automobile manufactured by Ferrari in high numbers. It is lauded by many for its intrinsic driving qualities and groundbreaking design. In 2004, Sports Car International placed the car at number six on its list of Top Sports Cars of the 1970s. Motor Trend Classic placed the 206/246 at number seven in their list of the 10 "Greatest Ferraris of all time".

La Ferrari Dino 246 GTS. Le véhicule est nommé en l'honneur du fils aîné d'Enzo Ferrari, Dino Ferrari décédé en 1956 à l'âge de 24 ans mort dû à sa maladie. Fondateur en 1947 de la firme automobile Ferrari S.p.A., Enzo Ferrari décidera en hommage de son fils disparu prématurément, il créera cette voiture qui sera produite de 1969 à 1974 et en 3 761 exemplaires, elle sera dessinée dans l'esprit de la Porsche 911. Toutefois, à la base, cette voiture est conçue à cause de l'agacement d'Enzo Ferrari envers le succès commercial des Porsches 911 qui crée de l'ombre à sa gamme de véhicules V12. Elle sera la première voiture Ferrari ayant un moteur central, mais aussi une propulsion lui donnant une tenue de route exemplaire pour l'époque. Son moteur est un V6 de 195 ch, mais restera assez fragile et pointu, à cause, des premières versions à bloc aluminium qui sera remplacé plus tard par des versions à bloc en fonte. Ce moteur sera travaillé par les ingénieurs de Ferrari : Vittorio Jano, Franco Rocchi, Carlo Chiti, mais aussi par Dino Ferrari, donnant ainsi une partie du nom en son honneur à la marque et la voiture.

Constructeur automobile italien et filiale de Ferrari, Dino sera créé par Enzo Ferrari (1898-1988) en souvenir et pour faire hommage à son fils Dino Ferrari (1932-1956). Ainsi, cette firme sera créée dans le but de concevoir et fabriquer une gamme de voitures GT de prestiges et de voitures de course possédant les moteurs V6 Dino et V8 Dino entre 1965 et 1976. Dino Ferrari disparaître précocement en 1956 à l'âge de 24 ans seulement. Ainsi à titre posthume et dans une démarche de mémoire et d'honneur nevers son fils, Enzo baptisera tout les moteurs V6 de sa production les "Dino" et créera cette marque en parralèle des modèles Ferra à moteur V12. Il y aura aussi l'Autodromo Enzo e Dino Ferrari (aussi connu comme le Circuit d'Imola).

Alfredo Ferrari, connu sous le surnom de Dino Ferrari, naîtra lui en 1932 à Modène. Il sera ainsi un ingénieur italien, mais aussi le fils héritié d'Enzo Ferrari. Il suivra dans un premier temps une formation en finance puis fera une formation d'ingénierie mécanique en Suisse. Peut avant sa mort, il travaillera à l'Usine de Maranello avec son père en participant notamment aux conceptions des moteurs Ferrari de l'époque (V12 Colombo en 1947 ; V12 Lapredi en 1950 et V12 Jano en 1956) en particulier sur le moteur V6 "Dino" de 1958 qu'il ne verra jamais fini et mis dans un véhicule.

Fiat Dino Spider 2000 

The Fiat Dino was introduced as a 2-seater Spider at the Turin Motor Show in October 1966. The car was designed and manufactured for Fiat by Pininfarina. The Dino Spider was offered with an all-aluminium DOHC 2.0 L V6, coupled to a 5-speed manual transmission. The same 2.0-litre engine was used in the mid-engined Ferrari-built Dino 206 GT, which was introduced in pre-production form one year later and went on sale in 1968. Fiat quoted 158 bhp for the Fiat Dino, which was quite impressive in the sixties for a 2,0 litre engine. Finished in stunning Bianco (which was its original colour) with a nicely patinated interior, this car looks as good as it drives. The typical metallic sound of the Dino V6 engine adds a lot to the driving experience, and the sculpted front wheel arches offer a similar view from the drivers seat as in a Ferrari Dino 206 GT. With only 1133 examples built this is a very rare car, and one of the sexiest Fiats ever made.

Preservation class: 1967 Fiat Dino Spider 2000

For classic car aficionados, the 1967 Fiat Dino 2000 Spider represents a blend of Italian artistry and Ferrari engineering. This particular model is a rare survivor, off the road since 1990. The Fiat Dino was born from a collaboration between Fiat and Ferrari, driven by the need to homologate Ferrari’s V6 engine for Formula 2 racing. Introduced at the Turin Motor Show in 1966, the Fiat Dino…

Fiat 130 Coupé Sport, 1971, by Frua. Pietro Frua's styling for the Ferrari-engined 130 was much more sporty than Pininfarina's production version but Fiat had no interest in pursuing Frua's proposal so he repurposed it as a Citroën

I don't post this "design phase" stuff very often (more here than on Twitter back before) but here's something:

As my personal take on "super-deformed" JRPG style pixel character design evolves, particularly my larger sprites derived from my Hedge Wizard style, I sometimes experiment with fun ideas like "what if Redwall but dinosaurs?" and get something a little like dragonborn from D&D haha.

What you don't see here are some other iterations of the base body models. I found a general feminine and general masculine look I liked and iterated from there for now.

This stuff isn't "for" anything and I might not touch it again, or not for a while, or I might use it someday in something unexpected.

They are also reminiscent, in some ways, to the goblin designs I was doing last year for "Gobtober" before I got caught up in more important projects and had to stop.

Or the "looser" character designs I did for "Cathy Goes Flipside", a video game I made/am making for my wife. About her adventures in a magical world made up of references to shit she likes, everything from Over the Garden Wall to The Terminator. This is Sgt. Squash, a mercenary for hire and ex member of the Punkin Clan military. She hangs out in a bar based on the Double Deuce from Roadhouse.

You can also kinda see some markers of my process in those dinos, too. It's nothing unusual. I tend to work off template designs which are nekkid barbie doll style sprites. Things sometimes get wild from there:

The above is an example of a "sketchbook" for designs. I have tons of these, roughly organized, all over my shit. This one was for the v5 designs for The Hedge Wizard characters. Been replaced already w/ v6 designs that are somewhat but not necessarily noticeably different. Better, for sure, but mostly in a way I notice and maybe other pixel artists might. Anyways, thanks for having a look!

Disclosing Auto News:

This is a Dino 246. Not a Ferrari, a Dino! In the late sixties, Ferrari was struggling a bit and decided to get as close to "mass production" as it could in order to save the company. Because it was to be a profit making venture Enzo Ferrari insisted on using proprietary parts, some Fiat parts and it was not to be called a "Ferrari". It was a sort of cut price car, but wash your mouth out saying that today. The first was released in 1967 and was powered by a 2.0 litre V6 engine and was called the Dino 206. It was a big seller in the US but there was a request for "more performance please", so engine capacity was increased to 2.4 litre — 246 — and the wheelbase increased by 60mm.

The 246 continued in production in various guises until 1974 when it was discontinued even though demand was still strong.

Only in the very last of them did Enzo weaken and allow the car to be called a Ferrari — although, restrospectively, they are today all called Ferraris and all possibly have had Ferrari badges retrofitted — but for most of their production life they were simply "Dino".

Good looking? Most people go weak at the knees at first glimpse of a Dino — it certainly is voluptuous, like Marilyn Monroe's bosoms.

I am going to carry on this conversation in the next issue of Classic Driver, but have your say here on what you think of the Dino.
