This is where the rest of my money ends up.  |

This is a continuation of the on going restoration that I intend to make a reliable daily driver from. After rebuilding the engine the ignition was replaced with a Distributorless unit that I cannot brag on enough. It is fully adjustable and adds very noticeable power and driveability to the car. I am currently working on an updated timing belt pulley and belt system that will add dependability and longevity to the cam drive system. After I perfect it I will offer it to anyone else who might want one.  |

Since someone has noticed, the seat pattern is reversed from the original. I did it that way because the original has always looked as though it was in a reverse pattern and to help identify the car if it should disappear. The Cavallino was sewn in since I can't spell embroidried by a custom shop and then made into the head rest. The shop is my place of business in S.C. |

Since It's been mentioned a couple of times. I would like to chime in that I noticed that nice garage too. The car looks great. Fred |

Is it different? I thought that the GTSi's were like that. I have a QV so I can't compare to mine, but I thought that that was the way they were (and then for the QV they just added that stitch down the middle). I think the headrests look pretty sharp. Were the Ferrari headrests just like that but one tone instead of the two tone black on tan? Regardless, it's still a sweet car, and I too also wish I had such a nice garage. Bret |

I'd hate to be picky here... but that's a different "Herring Bone" pattern in the seats. As well as the Cavallino Rampante on the head-rests. I guess you had the seats re-trimed at an upholstery shop? Geeze, if only my garage was that neat and wide open!! The more parts I take off, the more parts I trip over! Running out of shelf, trunk, under-car and bench space. Looks like the next spot will be my closet and under the bed! |

Che bella Looks like you have a great car to turn into a daily driver. My '85 308QV is happiest when I drive it everyday. Bret |

Evidently I am missing something in my ability to add pictures to this site. It does come up with a prompt to add the file as it says it will when posting. A better explanation is in order for me to add the pictures. |
