Re: Anterior undercarriage protection

Thank you Tom! Do you have pictures of an radiator pan one that I could use for a template?

Anterior undercarriage protection

The anterior undercarriage protection plate under the cooler of my GTE looks somehow strange to me. The thickness of the steel plate is thinner than other loose metal parts of the car and the linkage to the middle of the lower anterior body (below the grill) also doesn’t look too original to me. Doe...

Chromed escutcheons for the bumpers

The chromed escutcheons for the bumpers of my GTE werde heavily deformed and used originals were expensive and not in perfect condition either. I decided to have new ones produced from brass, matching the original dimensions. The cut outs of the originals always seemed unnecessary large to me and ma...

Re: Gasoline and fuel filter housings 2 questions

I wasn´t happy with the available sticker too and thought about using a stencil first, but the letters are so fine that I wasn´t sure whether this would work. Finally I tried to replicate the yellow label with a stamp. The alloy canister is not perfectly round which makes it difficult to roll the st...

Re: Securing plate for droop stop rubber

I made the same experience when mounting the rubber part 45 and consider parts 46 and 47 as useless too. I just wanted to make sure there is nothing missing and my car meets factory standard. As nobody I talked to ever saw these parts in real I conclude that the factory came to the same conclusion a...

Re: Securing plate for droop stop rubber

Ok, understood, thank you Tom. What about part Nr. 46 and 47 in this tavola of the 330 catalog? Does the 250 GTE have these? At least these are missing in my car?!

Undercoating

I must define the areas for the undercoating now and ask for your help please. My research brought me to this conclusion: a) wheel housings (inner fenders) b) floor panels up to the aluminium trim/strip left and right c) kardan tunnel (both, the fixed metal part and the removable aluminium part) d) ...

Position of number plate

As the number plates in Austria are quite big it’s aesthetically painful fixing these to the GTE. I found a good solution for the rear plate but struggle with the one in the front. The best solution would be under the front bumper, but the plate would cover 3/4 of the two lower air inlets. My concer...

Re: Securing plate for droop stop rubber

Hello Tom, I guess you mean these 2 welded parts (please see picture/marked blue), right? Does you car have the two securing plates shown in the 330 catalog on Tavola 29 (parts 46 and 47) that seem to secure the rubber part (45)?

Re: Securing plate for droop stop rubber

Thank you for the information. I am not aware which model name the frame of my GTE does have but it is a 2+2. Please see the picture of the section where the droop stop rubber is mounted - would there be the two parts originally? I understand that these shall be fixed on the underside to secure the ...

Securing plate for droop stop rubber

Hi, the 330 catalog shows 2 items on Tavola 29 (parts 46 and 47) that obviously shall secure the rubber droop stop at the front suspension - please see picture. Does anybody ever have seen these 2 items or in best case have dimensions and a picture of these? I do have a 250 GTE and miss these. I sup...
