    Hey BigTex,

    Yes, you can send PM's, emails etc. I have loads of parts to sell-out :)

    By the way - my chassis is outsourced right now, being dry-ice blasted. Looking so much forward to get it back. When back and after some further cleaning, the chassis will be outsourced again for roll-cage fit.

    Normally I hate modified Ferraris, but your project is really cool- I love the Michelloto (sp?) cars

    I never heard of dri-ice blasting, but it sure seems to have worked. Is it expensive compared to sand-blasting?

    I learn something everytime I check in on this thread.
    Brilliant, painstaking work!

    I'll be even more interested as the engine development gets a bit further!

    Best of everything in your project,

    Well, dry-ice blasting is quite good to remove dirt, glue etc. To get to the bare metal, you either sandblast or you steam wash at 2000 bar !

    What we did was dry-ice blasting, then cleaning with rotary tools and then a final "light" blast with sand. Finally a protection primer with welding capabilities.

    Yes dry-ice is expensive, about three times up compared to sand blasting.

    Don't think this project is possible to realise during a weekend or two... count with 1500 working hours. Think twice before you start any similar projects, however I am very pleased with our progress :)

    Guys, summer holiday is over :(

    We are beside the body preparation, also working on the suspension parts (glass blasting of wishbones, machining bushes). The brake parts, dampers and springs are ordered from AP and Intrax, and we are waiting for the postman to arrive with the premature christmas gifts :)
