Recovered Ferrari saved from demolition: Preferably to Artis

The Ferrari that was removed from the IJ on July 9 will not be scrapped. The car is now at a scrap yard in Blokker, North Holland, but what exactly will happen with it is still unclear. The Ferrari Mondial was stolen in 1987 and was spotted 26 years later during a fire service diving drill in June. A month later the Ferrari was fished up.

'Normally it arrives as a package. And then the story actually ends, 'says Lowie Hoedt of car junkyard De Ooyevaar. Yet they did not have the heart to actually demolish the vehicle. That while this type of vehicle was not the favorite among Ferraris. 'This was kind of the ugly duckling in the family. But so many years later and after having been through so much misery, he still gets the appreciation that a Ferrari should get.
What will eventually happen to the Ferrari is still the question. The scrap yard has had a lot of contact with people who wanted a part of the car. 'For example, people wanted to buy an engine block and use it to build a coffee table,' says Hoedt. 'Or they wanted to convert the rims into a piece of decoration.' According to Hoedt, the car comes from Amsterdam and belongs there. "Big money is being offered for the car, but our wish at the moment is to get it to Artis." According to Hoedt, there are beautiful aquariums in the animal park. 'The best thing would be if he could be under water somewhere. After all, he spent 26 years there. ' And I totally agree.

In this summery Happy Hour we play music from 2005 to 2018. Oh yes and the month is August. So, very interesting to listen. A tip of the veil: Avicii and The Black Eyed Peas.

Have fun listening!

Municipalities support National Moluccan Monument

This year it will be 70 years ago that the 1st generation Moluccans were transferred to the Netherlands in 1951 with 12 ship transports. On command, about 4000 Moluccan KNIL soldiers and Navy men came to the Netherlands with their families (in total 12,500 persons). At the point of arrival of the 1st transport ship at the Lloydkade in Rotterdam, it is not yet possible to trace a historical event. The National Moluccan Monument Foundation (LMM) is committed to realizing a monument. The monument will be a tribute to this 1st generation Moluccans and their families and in recognition of the shared past.
