    Hi - some advice please.

    When one nears completion of a building project, one often employs a ‘snagger’. Someone who can come in and review all the tiny details and level of finish to check for errors, omissions and quality of work. Even great builders miss things and owners are often in a rush to take their home back and move on and as a result, don’t spot small or possibly big issues. You can do this yourself, but having a professional (who can just be another interested homeowner with an eye for details, or a builder) can result in picking up more stuff. Or simply peace of mind.

    OK - to the Ferrari question! I am reaching the end of a multi-year restoration and while I have a reasonable eye for detail and know the car type pretty well, I am not a professional and given the costs involved / importance of getting it right, I do wonder if I should get some professional advice before signing off on the completion of the project? I in no ways wish to offend the company doing the work - I think they are great - but I think I do want to some independent validation of the work and that ithas been well done.

    Has anyone else who has had an early 1970 Ferrari restored taken independent advice? Does anyone have any recommendations as to who might perform such a service?
