    He's well known around here.
    At least he's now cleaned that Boxer so he can see where to go next.
    Amazing how well it came up, looks like he can leave it a lot more original than it seemed was possible at the beginning.

    You'd think he'd blow all the crap off the engine before he'd start doing things to it!?

    There are no words to describe how much that irritated me......
    But hes running a You tube channel, I think he does things like that deliberately to generate views and so forth.
    If it was my car the first thing I would have done is clean the damn thing!!

    For sure, I'm not knocking him for it, as he always ends up doing the right thing, he's been around Ferrari's for a long time, he is no fool.
    As I have a Boxer fetish, I am watching his series on this.

    Is a Fetish for Boxers different than a Boxer Fetish?

    It really cleaned up nicely. If the previous owner had it detailed, he probably could have sold it online himself and made a bunch more money.

    Looking at a car through a medium quality video camera is very forgiving. Not much has changed by that wash and vacuum clean in my opinion but it is a good way to sell tickets. I like the show though and the guy is entertaining and smart.

    Best, Peter

    Good question....At least he will end up with a real car and most spare parts fully sponsored. That's his objective I guess.

    I don't know why so many forum members are flabbergasted about him using the TR as a rat car. That's a unique approach and certainly gets noticed. I won't be doing it to my car but using it as a workbench is true to his car's title. With enough subscribers I'm sure there's a modest revenue stream, maybe even enough to pay for that little hobby. Keep going Mr Ratarossa! :D
