That would go along with Marc’s comments, he seemed to think it was an easy swap. Our conversation was pretty brief tho!!

 

It's not simple job to properly convert a 360F1 to a manual - re-programmed engine ECUs and many other things to make it a true "manual" car. The parts book shows all the differences. I reckon not worth doing - better just buying a manual if thats what you want ( about 35% of 360 produced were manual ).
I've heard there are a couple 575 manual conversions underway in OZ too ( the owners are collecting the required parts).

 

Yep, I’m not fitting twin turbos and a body kit, the cars came out like this. I’ll keep all the old parts.

 

I’ve forgotten what your car looks like, any chance of a photograph [emoji4]

 

Imagine your car , with a proper roof and red

 

There’s a manual for sell at $280k. F1 sold recently for $240k. All at ticket price I know but take it at face value. $40k..so $20k extra? Won’t have a story and Not far off? Simplistic view I know…
But in ten years, next gen will want F1 as manual but next gen of owners r oldies with knees problems

 

Sure

Boy that’s in great shape, have you got the original starfish alloys? , mines at the paint shop currently getting the front bumper and passenger side door done due to hitting debris on the m5 the other week on the way home from its major, after paint it’s back in the workshop for clutch, door locks and AC condenser, plus I will have the wheels refurbished soon so I should look better , then it’s new bathroom time for us [emoji849]

 

LOL
I haven’t seen a pic of yours recently

 

Thanks Adrian, geez that sounds nasty, you must’ve been pissed. Much damage or just scratches?
Is that your first clutch mate?
I just had my aircon re-gassed it’s nice now!!

 

I’ve heard of a LHD coupe for sale with all the Rhd conversion gear included for $50k, great project for someone, it’s an F1 apparently not sure what colour, I don’t know the ins and outs of getting something like that roadworthy, I imagine it’s not cheap but if you had time and cash it’d be fun, road/track breakfast run thrasher [emoji12]

 

Full of cold air

 

I love that car

 

Ah[emoji23][emoji23], Teetotaller thanks[emoji12] chips scratches on the bumper and the rock that hit the side was a Big Bang, 2/3 inch dent under the key lock, so depressing [emoji17]
Yes first clutch and 40,000 klms so not bad really [emoji16]

 

You keep dropping hints!

 

I can’t afford it at the moment Peter but hold on to it for another year and I’ll definitely be in the running, beautiful car, the only 308 I’d buy [emoji237][emoji237]

 

Surely you’d get a couple of hundred k for yours Adam, it’s mint and very low mileage isn’t it ?

 

I can do a trade and cash your way
