Pensacola Ferrari support

I live in Pace, just outside P'cola, and have only had my 355 serviced in Atlanta (FOA), and am totally pleased with all dealings with everyone there, as well as their work. In P'cola, I have not had to take it to anyone, but if I do my first choice will be Runway Imports on 9th Ave., 850-477-0216. While I have not used them for years, they straightened out a 911 engine once that another shop messed up. I would go with them over Likis, altho that is another possibility. Hope this helps, Phil.

 

Sorry, I have been busy a couple days.

Bobby Likis, 5675 N. Davis Hwy. 850-477-9480. He has been around a long time, does (or at least did) a auto radio show that covers at least the SE US. He has a nice building, and we have used him a couple times on non F cars. I have heard that he works on F cars. He can be pricey, but probably wouldn't match a F. dealer.

Runway's yellow page ad has a list of cars that includes Ferrari, maybe they decided to quit on them after they submitted their ad.

My plan when and if the 355 has any kind of major problem is to have it trucked to FOA--when you have that kind of value, it makes sense to me to have it fixed by mechanics that really know what they are doing. Trucking it up there should be very roughly $500 (enclosed), then one can fly up there for probably $100 to drive it back.

Let me know how you come out.

Phil

give me a call I have a full shop here a Pensacola regional we have done most all of the work on my tr.

 

wow, F-cars in Pensacola?

How come we never see them on the road? I personally don't have one, but would love to see them more often.
Guys, check out www.srvidz.com for a trailor of the footage we got at French Quarter Classic this past weekend.

Bobby Likis seems to run a very clean business. Also, Bob Cole (he has a shop by the airport, forget the name, it runs between 9th and Langley down the road where the firehouse is) is a standup guy and real knowledgable. If you're looking for honest service on things such as brakes, oil changes, etc. I would give these guys a shot.

 

also...

ought to get up the F-cars together one night and roll out to the Burger King on 9mile rd and impress the old muscle cars and classics.

not a problem mark just let me know we can trouble shoot the problem here at the hanger I will be out of the office 3rd week in december my son and I are picking up our new 360 if everything goes according to plan. and driving it back from california...

 

Well first you may want to try to fix it yourself. Check in the archives of F-Chat and see what could cause this problem. The slowdown usually is a catalytic converter that is failing and blocking exhaust flow, thus overheating the engine. The easy fix is replace them with test pipes.

Could be some other things as well but as I said you may do it yourself. If nothing else works, have it sent to FOA.
