Interim Floors and Misc Painting

The Engine compartment detailing is just about done. Once the gas tank is installed, we’ll be able to prime the fuel bowls and fire her up!

Unfortunately, with the nice clean engine compartment, the air cleaner now looks a little ratty. We’ll strip it, and put a fresh coat of paint on it to match the rest of the engine.

There was one section of floor pan on this car that needed repair, so I had our fabricator make a replacement section of floor.

He matched the edges to the factory piece for the spot welds and it’s ready to be welded in place.

The radiator pan also needed painting before I reinstalled it on the car. It’s showing some bumps and scrapes, so I straightened it out a little bit before applying a fresh coat of semigloss black paint to this panel.

Reminder: If you have a Ferrari related project, car, or idea you’d like to explore, I’d love to talk to you. I can also help if you’re thinking of buying or selling. This website represents what I love to do, and now it’s how I make a living, so if you’d like to do something together, let me know. It all begins with an e-mail!
