Lovely place buddy ! Really great ! Congrats !

 

Jon,
Did you use soft copper tubing for the hydraulic lines or hard steel (or equiv)? Pressures get awfully high with power assist. Might check what stock lines are made of.

Faking the rest, my ass. Great job. Spured me on to do my miserable 308.

 

What's wrong with the black one that it needs a ground up rebuild? I thought the Miura was next?

 

I've got every tool you have with the exception of the powder coater.I'm a pretty good wrench, but couldn't do what you have done in two lifetimes. Carry on.

 

Now that, was a beautifully stated compliment

 

novel idea! but how did you know which gear to purchase and tools to acquire, etc? you have a pretty elaborate setup in that dreamshop of yours from the pics! you must have a ferrari mechanic as a good friend, right?

 

you have gone to the best FERRARI workshop in the world , photographed it and called it your own, keep up the wonderful work, unbelievable,

I'm moving there - that workshop is cleaner than my house!!

Been following this thread since the start & thoroughly enjoying watching the process. Great thanks due for taking the time to document it for us.

Wasn't sure I'd like the colour but it looks really nice

Where did you find new accelerator pedal rubber? Last time I checked around, I could not find one.
