Re: Cavallino 2012

You wanted painted blue by January I'll paint it blue, how many cans of spray paint does it take to paint a Ferrari? As for Cavallino without a car, no stress no judges just enjoy the event and do what you want when you want. This year like last year we are going early to play in South Beach a littl...

Re: Ignition Timing Light

I know that my fancy overpriced Snap On timing light with the digital readout does not like Ferraris, I buy the 20$ analog ones from the parts store and I even have a battery powered one for Magneto cars since the charging systems seams to cause issues on some cars. One critical thing I learned long...

Re: 365 gt 2+2

Thought I posted a reply earlier but maybe I never hit the button. Try GT Car Parts to see if they have any left if not I have access to the mold to make you as many as you want. If I had a queen that I drove around on a regular bassis I would probably have a spare, one pot hole or misjudged parking...

Re: water pump leakage

One of the other x-factors is that the aluminum castings tend to get very pitted over time especially if the coolant isn't changed out regularly or if the engine grounds are removed(electrolysis) so even if the seal is sealing against the impelled water can leak around the perimeter of the seal. My ...

Re: New Shop

I think the only word to properly describe the latest couple cars I have been working on is Resurecton!!! but I do like the "recombubulation" section perhaps that will be a smaller subsidy of the Resurection department. As for "Contreversy" I think that and vintage Ferraris go hand in hand.

Re: 250GTE - Electrical Problem

Good suggestions, I have also had problems with the contact of the negative cable to the body after the car has been sitting. The ground connection is everything and often it is better to add some extra ground cables on a car that is going to be driven.
