    Looks a great job. Please keep us updated on progress.
    You know that Ratarossa has done the same thing right?
    Like to see some pics of the fitting of the carbon door cards as I'm planning to do this.

    Yes I saw all his videos and posts. Nice guy!

    The cards are easy. You just need to move the window motor in and add a +/- 1” spacer.

    Hi, Could you tell me what mechanism you use inside the carbon door card please. Did you retain the electric window mechanism? If so how did you join them up? To a cable or a lever? Can you show us a pic of this conversion perhaps?

    The 360 was the last F1 Ferrari that needed an 6 speed conversion. I’ve spent time in a factory 430 6spt, and it just didn’t work.

    I left the window motor in. Nothing is remove. You only have to replace the inner door handle cable with a longer cable that runs through the door card on the outside. Each for 360trev. he has a great thread of his conversion and has a step by step of how its done.

    So the dry icy thing didn't work for this car, the sound deadening is different than other cars .....as jg360 said, a plumbers torch works well for this. Total PIA tho...I spend 8+ hours on one side and still can't get the all the residue off. Personal Thanks to jg360.

    These look really good. What products/process did you use to repaint these?

    Good man! I never noticed these before on the CS interior; they look like switches out of a 355 or a 550.

    I bet that CS carbon centre console wasn’t cheap to come by either.

    Im actually keeping my carbon center because of the manual 6spd conversion. The CS would not work and would need to be totally modified and not worth it. I may do that in the future to replicate the CS and fit with a 6spd

    I remove the sticky with an acetone and used Tamiya TS-82 paint.

    Nice red dash! But the steering wheel is on the wrong side. Just kidding. I am excited with the progress. You must be crazy excited to get this baby on the road!!

    Don't mean to jack your thread.... but if someone wants a 360 lower dash and glove box to use to create a cs dash hit me up...... I have both units avail.
    It will be a long time before I'm able to do this type of build.

    Nice work, and please keep the pics coming.

    Massively impressed. Looks like you’re adding a lot of value to the car, as well as making it your own and making it more purposeful. Not an easy trick to pull off.
