Wheels were in a bit of a state and needed a fair bit of work stripping and prepping.Quite awkward things to paint in one go as well. Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login

Looks fantastic! I've always wanted to see TDF on a 348. Can't wait to see it all together sitting in the sunshine!
Onto the mechanicals and the oil tank needed a bit of a freshen up. Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
The rads and oil cooler where in a pretty poor state as you can see from the pics. In fact the cooler hose had been stripped and the temp switch hsg had corroded away. Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
Sent the rads to a local firm for rebuilding. the cooler was a different matter, Ferrari list is around £750 if you can get them.I found a company called Radtec in the Midlands that could rebuild the cooler keeping the same cast end tanks with the Ferrari logo's fit new unions and rebuild the hsg for the temp sensor. Think the pics speak for themselves................................cost £150 Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login

You are truly sick man.... I know I have the same sickness! Once you start on these projects there is no place to stop! You are doing a great job! Adivice: do not keep your receipts!
While the body was being done I was also working on the engine.As you can see from the pics it was in a pretty untidy state when it came out. Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
When I bought the car the intention was to rebuild it into a nice useable car, not a concours car that I wouldn't want to use. Steam cleaned the engine ass and removed all the ancillaries.The plenum and the cam boxes were loosing their paint so they would have to be refurbed.Problem as others have found with the plenums is getting the silver crinkle paint so I took the easy route and went Black. Apart from a really good clean and the repainting of some components all that it had was a thorough service, belts, Hill's tensioners, valve clearance, cam seals, etc. Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
