Taso, are you going to do any body work on the car ? I have the Koenig fiberglass body kit with the F40like front fenders & the swollen rear fenders on my race car now. Also removed the cheese graters & going with an adjustable race wing. Gonna try for "just" 500hp though. Has your transmission been strengthened ? Beautiful car  | ||

Taso, you gotta bring this baby down to Homestead in October. The car is longing for the track! Hope my car is running by Oct 18. Only a few more days. I may miss that one too I am afraid. I am sure you will come down for the St Armands Circle show, right? Also check out the Savoy event in December. A social I am organizing with some other FOC members. Will be a class A event, with FILA in sponsorship, a fashion show and pooolside car display of F40s and 288GTOs. If the 550 Maranello from Rafanelli-Racing (Olive Garden) is back from Italy by then they will bring the car. | ||

Taso, you mention in your other messages the previous owner of you car was the owner of "Octopussy"-boat (from James Bond movie). The owner of Octopussy is my friends friend (so I almost know him ;), he�s a Finnish guy named Mr. Jorma Lillbacka. I suppose he had the boat in the 80's as well. He recenly sold his business for around $180-200.000.000,- (started his business with no money around '50-60s) and is well known here in Finland (good reputation). It�s funny how small this world is | ||

This TR reminds me of the '80's (Miami Vice era). Bring on the Slantnose, AMG Hammer, & the Countach. | ||

you know ernesto, technically speaking those slats are not really reminiscent of cheese graters. they are more like tomato slicers. my cheese grater has little holes w/ upturned grooves....vaguely similar to the wire mesh that cover the air intakes on 360's......... | ||

Well, I love Koenig because he eliminates the ugly cheese graters from his TR's. Ernesto | ||

Ernesto: maybe you could get some Koenig aftermarket cheese graters for your 360. I am surprised you read a post with the letters TR in it! | ||

I would LOVE to see the Koenig receipts, especially what turbos they used, wastegate, boost controller, and other tech aspects of the kit. Ernesto | ||
