Amazing and well worth the wait. I wonder where Doody is, since he has begged for pictures of the desk for at least a year. He's probably scheming on how to one up you!  | ||

I have a power supply for the lights and the horn, but I have not hooked them up. I think my wife would be upset if I started "honking" every time I need a drink! | ||

Chris, that is just awesome... Especially the wall along the stairs... i mean, the whole thing is awesome, but to see that, one must know what to expect once reaching the landing... That is just too awesome... You're the man. | ||

Chris Burch, I took the F40 to MidAmerica Motorplex least weekend, it rained a bit too much, but the car was fine. I talked to Tate, I am going to live with the flywheel for a while. Hope to chat again soon! Chris Parr (Chris Burch has the coolest Ferrari garage) | ||

Chris, I should of known. Fantastic! I guess I don't have to guess where you will be viewing the Canadian GP. How's the clutch doing? I suspect that you are starting to love it???? | ||

Chris, You're just crazy...but that's alright. I think entusiast, fan(atic), and crazy are really one and the same. Good going! | ||

Chris, thanks for posting these pics. After showing this thread to my wife, she now considers me to be "normal." | ||

The desk was made by my finish carpenter, I was going to make a bar out of it at first, but then I decided on the desk. I have a 355 horn to go with it, but I have not installed it yet! Yes, the couch was made just for this room. The 355 picture and the F40 picture over the game table were painted by a local artist, Scott Gash, he does incredible work and very reasonable. Yes the entire room is "over the top" but that is the point, a play room for big kids! Glad you all like it, it was very fun putting it together, the sad part is that I am out of room! I have 2 closets full of stuff I can not display so I have pretty well stopped buying Ferrari stuff for now.. Thanks again! Chris | ||

I love the room Chris! One day I'll have one, except, with a projector and a screen for the TV. ;-) | ||

Having actually been in that room, I can honestly say it is pretty cool. Of course, my kids were with me and I was so busy trying to get them to stop touching everything I didn't get to actually look at much! ;) | ||

Chris awesome! That desk is great! Completely custom? Also, the 355 above the sofa, is that a painting or a picture? Ken, I think you misunderstood...that's Chris' house. | ||

Some of the photos show some tasteful design. Other areas are a little over the top. Of course, could be a relative of Enzo's or a sponsor etc. However, mention Ferrari and I bet this person is the life of the party. I would like to share his company and hear some adventures. | ||

My wife has one rule, no Ferrari stuff in the main part of the house. So if you came over, you would never know we had Ferrari's, but once you open that door and start going down those stairs...  | ||

really cool, what else is there to say? It also goes to show that a number of F chatters don't sleep at night. the thread start at 12:38 a.m. and it is now early Friday morning of the same day. Already a number of posts even in the middle of the night. | ||

Chris, Your taste in cars is only exceeded by your taste in "interior design". You should be working for Ferrari at Maranello to design their museum and work place. Great job! Regards, Jon P. Kofod 1995 F355 Challenge #23 | ||
