Keep popping fuses [fuel pump] It'll start and run for a few seconds. Then pop. So, off to my guys. Which frankly sucks, I got about 900 miles on it since late June's complete major. Having some oil eating issues as well. And I'm not dropping any, so trying to figure out what's going on. But, A+ for Hagerty's flatbed service (part of the insurance cost). I'm happy about that haha
had that problem when I first got my car, I ended up replacing both fuel pumps (the other was fine, but 'while you're in there") You'll be back on the road in no time...
I appreciate the good spirits Paul. It's been raining a lot lately (figuratively too) I NEED to drive this car during the week. I need it for my sanity
The last couple of months have been a bit crazy for me and I had little time to be here. Also now I am busy with Lady gray who is getting a new paint jacket before we go on our Mondial holiday. However there is a big chance that I need to leave her home due lack of time. I'll open another post on the work. I'm working around the clock to get her finished. Image Unavailable, Please Login

"My other car is a piece of crap too" We were joking around about seeing this on another car and I said wouldn't it be funny to put this on the "red car" so she bought one for us!! Lol Image Unavailable, Please Login

Got the Coupe cleaned up and showed it at CI 2016 Monterey yesterday. This morning drive was to Pebble & back. Checked out the Concept lawn. The Coast line streets have been fun with a lot of exotics on the road. Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
"Finally cooled of here in Maryland just a little. Neat little car show and seafood deck at the American Legion. Notice they parked me by the dumpster. Trying to tell me something?" This reminded me of talking to the owner of an Italian repair shop, Global Imports, at Baileys Crossroads in Fairfax Co where he, Mario, seemed to enjoy saying about Ferrari+Fiat+Lancia+etc electrics....in very heavy Italian accent..."It's like a pile of "jeet", the more you stir it, the more it stinks!!!" A friend had brought his Lancia Scorpion to him for a lighting problem and we just laughs our heads off!!! Lol
Brands Hatch, a famous racing circuit in the UK (F1 happened there until the 80's) organised a festival of Italian cars and invited Ferrari owners (including me) to display their cars. We joined Alfa's, Lamborgini's, Abarth's etc, and enjoyed Italian food, drank prosecco, watched Ferrari races and saw old Itailan F1 racers thunder by. A great day, I expect it'll become an annual event. Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login

Here are: ZFFLC15S000052823 ZFFCC26S000073693 A last day together, before I sold 3.2 and few years after QV, that was sold to England, If remember right 3.2 had 26k and QV 35k (real) kilometers. Both sold new in Switzerland. 3.2 might still have plastic film over stainles steel parts in cocpit, in this picture next to gas pedal it still is, I bought it with 22k km's and drove it to 28k km's. They where, as they say; good cars, how Mondials should be.

yes; I did fix them little... 3.2 I only removed foam out with paint thinner, very easy job. QV I did little bit more and painted plenum. Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
I know this is the mondial thread but I had to leave the Bertha Mae home. I recently turned 60 and my wife and kids wanted to do something special for me. Went to New Jersey and drove a 430 and the 458 pictured on a 1.9 mile road course. In both cars the people in front had to give way because they were holding me up. If I figured it correctly my average speed was over 80 MPH. Not to bad for an old fat guy. Image Unavailable, Please Login
