Hi, thought you guys may find the rebuild on my 348 Spider interesting. I have a 94 348 GTS and about 18 months ago I aquired a tatty Chiaro Blue 348 Spider with a Grey interior as a project.What with one thing an another I only got round to stripping and starting the work on it around the beginning of the year. The car was no stranger to a paint shop having been painted several times in it's life, once it was bare metalled I was pleasantly surprised to find that there wasn't much corrosion.Worst parts were on the lower O/S rear wing and the battery tray.

It's surprising how many parts there are to paint on a 348.This is the first batch being done after being stripped back to bare metal then prepped. Bonnet, door shells and dorr locks that have been stripped down. Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login

Next in was the rear bumper(front is already done but got no pics of the prep stage) side skirts, engine lid(less louvres) headlapm pods and the parts for the mirrors. Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
All Primered now.That just leaves the door strakes and the engine bay louvres to do. Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login

Was never a big fan of Chiaro Blue but wanted to keep to a Ferrari colour so it is now Tour de France(TDF) Blue.Really pleased with the colour. Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
