Thanks Larry! So you discovered Leatherique  . I haven't tried the dyes yet but they also make a flexible crack filler I hear. I'd love to see the photos. | ||

Sandra, My Congrats also and good for you - 2 Plats so far! And was nice to meet you there as well. I saw your endorsement for leatherique a few posts down. I just completed the rejuv oil & pristine clean on the entire interion and stripped my seats bare and re-dyed with the leatherique dye. All-in-all results pretty good, just my first time doing this kind of thing so I made a few rookie mistakes with the finish dye prep & work but the Rejuv oil saved my seats. I try to post a pix that shows the stripped and finished side-by-side. >> Larry | ||

I guess I'll have to change the subject to "So what the heck does a Platinum winning Ferrari look like?" LOL Winning is a blast! Concorso Italiano was like a dream come true | ||

Leatherique is good stuff! I use it on everything leather from car interiors to all my saddles and other leather tack. | ||

Sandra, the interior is grey in fairly good condition. I bought some stuff from letherique to make it like new but every time I want to start I decide that it not necessary yet. Christian | ||

Hey thanks Ben & Christian! Look forward to meeting a few of you in Monterey. How's the interior on your car Christian? Need any detailing tips ;) LOL just kiddin...I get people asking me what they need to do to win a Concours. Gee, I dunno, just make it look like it just rolled off the showroom floor I guess . Worked for me! | ||

Love it! Welcome to the world of the "UnRed" (and mostly unread too). Altho I admit to drinking that cola in a red can more than I prolly should. Look forward to meeting you and your car at CI. -Ben | ||

The Mondial's lines are much improved in that color! It's never been my favorite model, but I like it in prugna and noncab! Wheels look good too | ||
| Sandra Cairncross (Sandrac)
|
Well, I didnt mean the first or only person with a prugna Ferrari, but I'm still the only one I know of with a prugna 308 . I have only seen this color on a TR, a 328 and a 400i. | ||

Sandra: Sorry but you are not the first one with that color. Please go down in the showroom section to 1986 Mondial 3.2. Christian | ||

Yeah Rob, the QVs came with em | ||
| Sandra Cairncross (Sandrac)

Oh yeah and about red Ferraris...if I owned say a 330GTC (feasible) or a 250GT SWB (HA! I wish!) I would definately go for a red one but in a 308...way too common so I wanted other than red . | ||

Didn't 16" wheels come stock on the later 308's? | ||
| Sandra Cairncross (Sandrac)
|
Hi Stu, Yep, those are the 16" QV wheels...took awhile to find them and they had to be repainted  . Found them at GT Carparts in AZ (Bill). I have Dunlop SP Sport 8000s in the stock size. Good enough tires...I got them from Discount Tire at a killer price so couldn't pass them up . | ||

Sandra, Beautiful looking car! I too wanted a "not red" car. I love the tradition of red but I like being different more. Question - are those 16" wheels and if so - where did you find them and what kind of tire are you running on? Thanks and good luck! -Stu, 85 QV Euro | ||

GIF or JPG format should be small enough. Even a small BMP file is huge. If you want me to help you with the pics, just email them to me at [email protected] | ||
