Anees Posted June 11, 2009 Report Share Posted June 11, 2009 I really like the paintjob on the Buggy - looks really cool and suits the image! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pruplebug Posted June 12, 2009 Report Share Posted June 12, 2009 Hi and thanks for the comments The colour is in the metal flakes of the gel coat of the fibreglass rather than a paint job, so makes it much harder wearing. It really comes to life under flourescent lights and bright sunshine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rich Posted June 16, 2009 Report Share Posted June 16, 2009 Very nice....you must be getting bored of all these Ferrari's now!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Posted June 16, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 16, 2009 Days are getting "samey"...... I must confess the adjustments using shims is becoming much easier to math, this 288 i had to the nearest 1/60th of a degree front and rear In fact we had five Ferrari's at the centre today it was like a mini-meet.

Actually it is... Calibrating to such a high standard constantly does your head, these cars have non existent tolerances.... Plus fitting a tyre on a 2k wheel makes you very attentive!!

Tony Posted June 22, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 22, 2009 One of the spectators mentioned the tyres and the owner said there really hard to get now.... I said not for us, we can get them, he then explained the fronts are impossible to get to which i explained i have them in stock ..... Needless to say he bought them there and then even though his fronts are fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
