    Hello Guys and girls. My 348 was dormant for the last ten years (other priorities)
    The car is 348 Targa 92 all original first paint and overall excellent condition with only 41.000km.

    I parked it in the garage ten years ago due to leaking gearbox oil from the clutch vent and never got around to sorting it out. Now the time has come to pay her some attention.

    What I need to do:
    -Engine out and check valve guides and bearings, new gaskets and service of belts, water pump and rollers plus change of clamps, hoses and other gone bad bits and pieces.
    -Gearbox and flywheel revision and repair of worn-down components.
    -Cosmetic engine bay colouring and cleaning.
    -Exhaust manifolds, free flow cats, and some flap-valve operated exhaust (some ideas would be more than welcome)
    -New wheels (I would go for 18); ideas and suggestions are welcome.
    -Brakes and drivetrain check and replacement of the air-con gaskets and system (to be able to run standard gas)
    -Will also do a colour match of the bottom part to red (I need to do it as the front lip is cracked (curb) and the rear bumper is cracked (someone crashed in with a forklift, don't even ask :)
    -Polish and interior leather fresh-up

    That is about it :)

    Any ideas about where to source the parts in Europe and what kind of fluids to use?
    I was out of the scene for ten years, and I believe that situation has changed since then (then this was a cheap entryway into Ferraris). Now it's becoming a classic :)

    Plan to make a picture updates on the progress :)
