    Love your work Robb.

    In this pic the door scoop isn’t aligned properly with the lower wheel arch wing cover. Might need an adjustment or shimming to get it sitting nice and flush.

    Love the blanking plate and the wheels look great.

    Yes, the front has 2 threaded studs molded into the piece and I believe they often have a washer behind them acting as a shim....

    Yep. They can have a few washers (shims) to bring it into line. Like many have said before...no two ferraris of the same model are alike.

    Working in San Francisco this week. Got to drop in and see Cuneo. For those that don’t know, he is an extremely talented photographer specializing in the studio. I’m always inspired to see what he is working on. We grabbed some fish tacos...

    He’s also a great F355 owner.

    He added a Mclaren recently and I got to see that today.

    My mind was blown. Fastest car I have ever experienced. Amazing handling, brakes, and explosive acceleration. Blew my Ferrari F40 experience out of the water surprisingly. May be ruined forever... :D

    Thank you Cuneo.

    Back in AZ hopefully for the rest of winter for the most part...

    The permits on the garage site plan are fully approved now and the crew is back working on taping and finishing the interior.

    Life is good.

    Looks like a dealer showroom in the making. Can't wait to see the result.

    One wall is Rosso Corsa. Rest are White, White, White.

    But there will be big photos on the white walls. And a giant F1 graphic of the Scuderia on track. Still looking for a 2-3' cavallino thats not cutout flat metal. I'm hoping to find one that has curvy shape like those in the showrooms.

    Primer is done with first coat of white. Final paint in the next few days. Then garage doors and trim. Flooring in Dec. then the lift will arrive. Gotta get some cabinets and the tv ordered.

    Hey Robb - looks great! If you plan to do epoxy floors, I'd suggest doing the final coat of wall paint after the floors - those guys make a mess when they prep.. (if they are grinding the floor)
