Re: wall art

This makes me sick to me stomach, and pretty damn angry too. I can't believe they had the unmitigated gall to take a picture in front of the Ferrari factory before they destroyed it too! Hateful. Truly unbelievable.

Re: 330GT Wheels

For the record, Interim 7537 has 5 3812 15x7L. The spare still has the original Pirelli Cinturato tire on it. This is matches the build sheet:

Anyone heard if the olive grove is threatened by these fires? Haven't seen Tom of Zac post anywhere since the fires started - I hope everyone is safe.

Just as a point of comparison, here is the guibo from 7537: http://www.jb330gt.com/beginning/ia10big.jpg This original is a bit cracked, so I found a new one (in strap) from GTO Engineering from the UK, who were at the Historics at Laguna Seca a few years back. Not a bargain, as the exchange rates h...

Oops, perhaps not the color - looking at this website below, it looks like Pelle Nuvola is actually the surface finish of the leather, not the specific color (which is identified as VM 3015 for 7537).

[quote="sjvalin"]My interior was originally Pelle Nuvola. Anyone know what color this is? It's currently blue, which I love. -steve[/quote] Ferrari just provided my color certification, and it lists 7537s interior as Pelle Nuvola too. I'm certain this interior is original. Love that blue leather! Ch...

Jon, The trim is shaped like a T, with a tiny 'J' curl on the bottom end to help it catch the rubber and hold it in. I easily pulled mine out once a corner was carefully pried up. They are thin and flimsey, but if worked out so they are kept reasonably straight, keep their original shape. Fingers on...

Ah, I see it now! Great idea. Did you transport the GTE to the shop on it, or use something else? (I know, I know, a trailor) Even stripped GTEs are too heavy to just carry around.

Oooo thanks for the updates Zac. I love how light the car looks, floating on eight little sticks like that.

Looks really nice, I'm curious to see where the price goes too. Nice to see an auction with some effort put into it too! Actually the trunk is the 'least good' part of the car - the trunk carpets are red, the rubber is not correct, no spare tire hold down handle. If it was redoone, it was to a a hig...

Thanks Zac, sounds like you've made lots of progress on some of the hard stuff. Can't wait to see the final result, I'm sure it will be fabulous.

Best of luck. Jon
