Thanks guys! Congratulations back to Scott and Kris on their repective homes! I'm pretty excited about the possiblities! Unfortunately, I won't be able to put in a lift like Scott is planning, but maybe in the future, I'll be building another shop on the property out back! Kris- I'm sure you'll get ...

Hello All, Lee Appleyard send me these pictures of the headlights he's reproducing: http://www.tomyang.net/cars/Marchal435bothop.jpg http://www.tomyang.net/cars/Marchal435_422.jpg The website shows many more reproduction parts: http://vintage-headlamp-restoration.com/ http://www.tomyang.net/cars/DSC...

Hi Guys,

If you're interested in making an airbox for the Daytona, I may know of one that can be duplicated. Maybe if there is enough interest, we can offset the price by making a couple.

Hi Mike, Try: http://209.128.90.174/KBC/ferrari/ for the journal, and: http://209.128.90.174/330GTRegistry/ for the Registry. Hi site seems to have a DNS issue that causes some networks not to see the website. Accessing it directly with its IP is the only way I can see it! Hopefully, Kerry will fix ...

Hi Paul,

I'm glad it all worked out!

Hi Paul,

If the screwdriver trick doesn't work, try getting a good oil filter wrench that has the strap that tightens as you turn and get it on the base of the oil filter. The strongest part of the oil filter is the base where the sheetmetal is crimped to the body of the filter.

Good luck.

Tom

Hi Mark,

If you have server space (usually supplied by your ISP) you can post pictures to this forum, but you can also send me pictures and the story behind your Daytona, and I would be happy to post them to the owner's gallery.

P.S. Although it wasn't a "S," I owned '72 911T.

Thanks for the telling us. Someone on that thread was wondering about the GTO "Breadvan" car. It was a sixties creation, not a 70's race car as someone else posted.

Hi Luke,


I've been down that road with the window cranks!

Hi Terry, Thanks for the support! I agree with Fest, use filters. Dirt will score your cylinder walls, and make you lose compression, along with a host of other problems. Racecars run without filters because they're designed to run one race before being rebuilt. They might look cool, but it's a high...

Yale's brake lights operate on a pressure switch which is not adjustable. One solution would probably be to replace it with another switch that is more sensitive. I may have seen one in a hot rodding catalog. Of course this would mean modifying the threads to fit.

It's nice to know there's talk about me when I'm not there and it's not all bad!

I could have sworn I saw Riva Yachts using Ferrari motors at a Boat show display.

Hi Keith, Sorry to hear your filler story. Very few people know how to work with aluminum, so your problem is pretty common. My wife has resigned to the fact that I will eventually buy another car, and will probably be restoring cars forever! She's even O.K. with it as long as we can still pay the b...

Hi Bryan,

Thanks for the words of encouragement. I guess any time working on the Ferrari is a good thing, but sometimes even that can be a battle! The nice thing about this journal is seeing all the positive days of work, and it reminds me there were more good days than bad days!
