Hi there,
The following build/resto has been going for about 4-5 years, mainly the owner and his son who disassembled the car 5 years ago, had the shell sandblasted and repaired, put all the stuff away in Big boxes, bought more boxes of old parts, moved all of it around a few times, Got the car painted in a lovely Grey color, and then in the Fall of 2013 i was brought into the project to get things going and done the Right Way!
Engine was done by a local Ferrari garage, at a resonable cost.
New rings, bearings, timing chain, fresh hone etc. So basicly a fresh engine less pistons, rods, valves and cams - the engine was mechanicly a very good example prior to the rebuild!
State of the car as I Got involver with the project.
The painting was done local, by one of Europas Best painters (He has won the European Championship for painters before!), and is almost perfect except a few issues on the boot, so it Will need to be redone prior to finishing the car.
When i started toget involved, only subframes, diff and a-arms had been sandblasted and painted.
I had all bolts, minor stuff and loads more zinc plated, and then started the long journey of rebuilding all parts to my standards!
Meanwhile the owner Got on with the job of sounddeadening the car.
Then it was time to start with all the wiring in the car, as it all looked -Well lets just say Not pretty!
Almost everything is done by now, but only a few hours left on that job!
Heater matrix disassembled, all flaps are getting zinc plated, the heater core is getting rebuild by a local specialist.
Subframes rebuild, new bushes everywhere, all bolt zinc plated, new suspension custom made by KW in germany!
At the same time a local Company (Baadsgaard & Esbjerg) has been doing a lot of the leather work on the car, all seats are also done by now - have no pictures yet!
Lots more to come, as progress is beeing made!
