Going back to its original colour at long last. http://barkaways.com/ferrari-restoration/ferrari-365-bb-paintwork The level of detail and care that has been taken is amazing, the lower half is now satin black. The engine is out been tidied up and belts done. Carpet interior and boot are all been done too. starting to get excited now
Chiaro Blu? I always love to see cars going back to their original colors. That's the way it should be!
Beautiful. Are you still allowed to use single stage paints in the UK, or is it being done in base-clear?
fantastic! cannot wait to see pics of the finished product are you thinking about the 6 tips exhaust to?
They are nice in blue. Here is my old BB in Blu Ribot... Geno Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login

Looking good! What IS the name and paint code of that color?? (My red 308GTB is originally blue, but am unsure of the color, even though I have the 1976 Code and engine lid sticker for it!!) I told my crew to just start sanding, so we can tell! My cars all have Boxer trim too!
Bellisma. Such a worthwhile endeavor. Waiting with you with bated breath. Thank you for sharing. Scotts Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Finally picked it up Friday and it looks amazing. Barkaways have done a truly fantastic job. The paint is amazing and the car runs like a dream. Image Unavailable, Please Login
Wow! This is great. What is the material used for the dashboard and its color? It does not look like leather on the photos.
Very nice !! May I know how much does this paint Job cost in USA? I noticed they did not remove the glass/rubber shield . Did it turn out well from close ?
Thanks, would you know if this is the original dashboard cover for this car? I am curious because Alcantara only came out of Japanese labs in the early 70's and I am not certain when this material actually became commercially available. My 365 BB of 1975 (chassis 18571) has a black leather cover for the dashboard (same as the seats) but I do not know if it is the original material. I also have a 365 GT4 2+2 of 1973 (chassis 17295) which has the mouse-hair covered dashboard, which I assume is the original material.
Hello, no this dash was covered in 1988 in Alcantara and I'm sure would have been black leather. Some people say the early 365s of which my car is one (as it has the single piece seats and two small grills in the engine cover) had them. But I've seen no photo documentary proof as of yet. It's actually goes well with my blue exterior now, and no glare from sun on the windscreen. So I'm keeping. Your cars sound nice. Are photos on here?
