    Great car!

    I'm glad there is a 'new 348' thread and the wheels are on correctly!!!

    Thank you for all the nice comments. The only issues I have found are a slight leak at the cam seal (I'll watch and have resolved at next major and for some reason small chunks of foam occasionally blow out of the left side driver side air vent. Any thoughts to where that's coming from?

    Very common. It's deteriorating foam from the vent seal. No big deal.

    Maybe a mod can adjust the photos for me???

    Well in another thread I was looking for an area trusted Ferrari tech and the overwhelming response for F1 Imports in Naples has won.

    I have a request into them for pricing estimate for a major service, front wheel bushings (I think that is what they are called - the rubber looks old and showing cracking), and to check my cam gasket area leak. I'm going to open another thread asking some questions on this leak.

    Engine Out Service This week - Normal 30K service, new water pump, and new grease in clutch. Eric at F1 in Naples informed me that this is the best looking and cared for 348 he has seen in the last 10 years!

    Got a price to have both kevlar seats re-covered with new Ferrari Saddle Tan leather for $1000 per seat. Guy does nice work and has a dual needle sewing machine for perfectly even stitch lines.

    Got her back and am super happy and impressed with her. F1 in Naples, FL (Eric) were great. 4 pages of work to perfect her. Major, water pump, clutch, and more. This is one fully sorted perfect 348 Serie Speciale. Less than 15k miles and pristine.
