    Guys, many thanks for the amazing journey. This is truly great to follow.

    Out of curiosity - can you please share how much would something like this cost? (ballpark range)

    Here is my ballpark figure. 10G for the major, 15G for the paint job, 5G for misc. We are talking 30G.

    Bradan in the past has said to realistically expect 20-25k for the bare metal paint job.

    Likely more and worth every penny for a job done well :)

    The amount of hours is mind blowing.

    Grigio ferro metallizzato will be the final color.

    18-23 for a spyder paint job
    20-25 for a GTS or berlinetta and that includes welding 1/4 panels to prevent cracks.

    Thank you.

    They Bill don't get as crazy as you might imagine. I would say roughly about 50k for mechanical work, paint, and interior. Factory parts really drive up cost when you start getting into glass etc.

    Was the 355 not available in this color? (Which is a great choice.)

    Would seem easier/more affordable to tidy the original car up, sell it, and go find one in the color you want.

    NOT TAKING ANYTHING AWAY from the fantastic job that is being done here, just suggesting/wondering why that wouldn't be the way to go.
