    Specialty Car Craft is putting the final touches on it's new 25,000 sq. foot facility!

    First of all:

    Costa's racing again, this time in a Ferrari!

    Constantino Bertuzzi, the brilliant Ferrari driver, is a member of the Specialty Car Craft staff as a test driver, builder, and television show producer.

    Come by and say hi to him anytime at the new SCC shop at 1862 So. La Cienega Blvd, Los Angeles, CA. 90035.

    Second of all:

    Right now, in the SCC showroom window, are some amazingly beautiful cars: two Lamborghini Countachs, one Lamborghini Diablo, one Ferrari F430, one Lamborghini Murcielago, and a Ferrari 360. And that's just in the showroom window!

    Add to that an amazing list of new equipment and personnel and you have one of the best places to bring your special car!

    Buckle up the harness in your Italian bad boy and come on over! We love guests!

    So what else is new at SCC?

    Specialty Car Craft picked a very special car for one of their most unique projects - the Jaguar XJ220S TWR, one of only five in the world - the "Million Dollar" Jaguar,

    Painted in a one-of-a-kind matte Reventon Grey color, the car was also fitted with custom exhaust to accent the 700-horsepower Twin Turbo V6.

    It was an honor to be able to work on this piece of automotive history, seen here in a very recent photo from Monterey.

    What else is new?

    This is our 5th Ferrari 458 that we have received at our shop for customization.

    At Specialty Car Craft we give every customer the opportunity to customize and personalize their car however they please so that they are 100% happy.

    One of our best customers brought his brand new Ferrari 458 Italia in for some customization. We painted the original silver brake calipers in the Ferrari Signature "Giallo" Yellow along with the Ferrari Carbon Ceramic Brake graphics straight from the factory.

    We also re-painted the original silver sport wheels in Gunmetal Gray to give the car a more stealth look. This design happens to be an option from the Ferrari Factory but it will cost you much more than the price that we can do it for.

    Lastly we refinished all of the stock chrome emblems in a Black Chrome finish to add another touch of personalization to the car.

    Give us a call, e-mail or stop by our new facility to inquire about your own exotic or luxury automobile! At Specialty Car Craft we do what ever the customer desires...so if you can think it, we can make it happen!

    And more fun with SCC and our friends...

    For those of you who didn't know, recently over 100 of the most exotic super cars gathered in Los Angeles, CA. to show their support to the Sheriff's and California Highway Patrol as they do every year!

    Every year, we at Specialty Car Craft, your one stop for all of your body work, collision repair and customization needs, sponsor the event and bring along all of our buddies and their cars.

    Our famous fleet was there including the 2009 Ferrari Enzo, the 2008 Matte White BMW Alpina B7 we just completed, Goldfield's famous Ferrari 458 Italia and many more!

    Yep, our photography got to ride in the helicopter...and got an amazing photo!

    Larry you are killing me with all these drooltastic pic's and I am especially fond of the Lotus simply because the SC/T combo brings back fond memories of watching the Lancia Delta S4 shreek and bark. Oh and as a law enforcment officer I take my hat off to your entire company and staff for sponsoring the event with CHP.

    Keep those pics coming, PLEASE lol!!!!

    Best wish's,
    Gregg

    ps, The XJ220 is in my top 5 of greatest road going racecar's ever, I remember when they came out and when I had the priviledge of seeing,hearing and following one about 5yr's ago when a Gumball Rally swung through Texas.

    I can clearly see the Black Series/DTM style bodywork cloning [which is cool] but I am curious if you are doing anything with the engine/drivetrain and chassis ??

    Yes, the owner wanted everything tweaked for speed.

    All FerrariChat owners come see our new 25,000 sq. ft. shop at 1862 So. La Cienega Blvd. in L.A. near the 10 freeway.

    We love Ferrari owners and we love their cars.

    We hope to see you soon.

    Just out of curiosity, do you know the performance numbers on that Elise? 0-60, 100, the 1/4?

    And out of further curiosity, how much would something like that cost?

    I don't think I'm in the market, I've just always wondered what a maxed out Elise would look like. Feel free to disclose or classify as much information as you like. :D

    Cheers on the new shop! Beautiful, beautiful cars.
