    I bought a 355 project car from Ferrari of Houston. They are nearly finished on what what was an eight month project to restore the car and install a few upgrades including refinishing the interior in alcantara and refitting the door panels with carbon fiber (which they fabricated). I look forward to seeing photos from your project.

    Car is almost done! Painted and in the process of finishing the interior.

    We are right now going through all the mechanics including the original Brembo Challenge brakes and rebuilding/cleaning all the gauges. In addition we are upgrading the traditional NGK plugs to the Iridium X high performance plugs.

    Has anyone had experience running different plugs? Race fuel? Looking to run the car on CAM2 100 Octane.

    Our goal is to have the car 90% ready for Maranello Madness this weekend.

    A huge thank you to everyone at Ferrari Fort Lauderdale for their assistance in the project.

    This past weekend we hosted a series of events at our gallery in Downtown Miami. One included the launch of the all new Ferrari 305 Miami Hublot Big Bang. In honor of the occasion we pulled all the stops and finished the car for last Friday!

    Thank you to Ferrari Fort Lauderdale and their assistance and expertise in helping this project come together.
