Hi All, Just reaching out to any Vancouver area 360/430 member/owners to talk shop and hopefully do some safe cars and coffees in the spring locally. Hope to hear from ya ! Terry
Sounds good Mark ! i'm in the north shore. Just bought my 05 430 spider with 30,000km locally last month. Totally stock with Ferrari tubi. Just getting some inherent work done. Have you done your front ball joints?
hey terry welcome to the family. I’m a year into ownership so just as new as you are. Wasn’t much opportunity wise for meetups/drives etc. No, I haven’t had to do the ball joints but hear it’s a common issue to look out for. It’s on my radar. I just dealt with a F1 pump pressure issue that I just resolved so happy to share with you lessons learned. Here’s a pic of my f430 in the Squamish parking lot by A&W. it’s pretty modified!

hey thanks ! thats a beauty ! i was thinking to start a local whatsapp chat with 430 owners to talk repairs/ repair shops, share pics , etc. way easier than going thru emails and threads. what you think? my cell is 6048808626.

Yes, it doesn't get utilized the way it should but then again, nothing does these days. Local Vancouver car, 2005 with under 9,000kms. Factory CF interior and engine bay with PCCB brakes. HAve a set of HRE P47's in grigio metallic grey on it now, which compliments the car colour. Image Unavailable, Please Login
Hi folks, new to the site and apologize if this isn’t the right forum. I have a 360 Spider, it will need a new clutch in a year or two, about half worn. FMoV quotes a new clutch job at like $25K normally... seems silly. Just wondering if anyone had experience with other shops in BC doing this sort of work.
Suk, please fwd your cell for van area pre 430 whatsapp chat. Terry Sent from my SM-N975W using FerrariChat.com mobile app
Whos in for a rari coffee cars at Spanish banks in kitsilano soon as an intro to all? Terry Sent from my SM-N975W using FerrariChat.com mobile app
The original owner ordered it in the Lamborghini Arancio Borealis, which is basically metallic orange. It's one of those things, you either like it or hate it...lol Cheers, FN
Say Richard, it's great to finally see your car after what, 5 years - LOL! great colour & I think the wheels are a big upgrade in looks - we're marking time here, getting the old bus back on the road. going full "ICON"; dents & patina but all new mechanicals, suspension, brakes, etc. also spending spare time posting some of my old photos from Laguna & local show on: https://www.ferrarichat.com/forum/threads/car-photos.160699/ I'd post the bus phots here but as I live locally I'm afraid the rest of the board would hunt me down!
Hey Richard, Great to hear from you... Thanks for the compliment on the wheels but those are now gone. They were HRE 20" P47's, but even though I loved the grigio metallic colour, I returned the car to Ferrari standard. I got a nice set of Scuderia wheels in flat gray so I sold the HRE's. Is that a 23 window VW bus that you're restoring? If it is and based on the recent prices achieved, I'd go all the way and max out its value... Cheers!
