Dear God😍😍😍. I have never seen anything so beautiful and desirable in my entire life! It makes the Singer Porsche look like child’s play. Just 🤯. If ever there was a motivation to be wealthy, rich.... well, this is it! Spectacular!!!!!!
By chance your are keeping the Engine in your version. If not, that car is so much transformed that wouldn't be considered as being a Ferrari anymore. Very well done.
Hello, what you do is exceptional, there are very few companies that still work like you, but I wonder why you offer by a kit or a ready car assembled without engine of course.
Anything done to a Ferrari that makes it more usable without taking away from the soul of the car is, in my opinion, worth doing. Lots of these 308/328's are is very poor condition due to neglect and age, and due to the production numbers, it doesn't quite pay to have them restored to factory spec when you can upgrade the chassis, engine, etc and make it a truly good driver's car whilst maintaining all of the Italian looks, sounds, and sensations for the same money or less. This car will be driven like a wild hare and that does good things for the car community.
This is some heck of a build! But is this car in anyway water tight without any seem sealers an only riveted the fiberglass panels on the chassis. Ore is/was it 7 years ago only a dry weather racer?
They took a rare original Ferrari 308 GTB Vetroresina (Fiberglass) with the usual very poor Ferrari chassis as the donor car. They did improve the chassis but a completely new chassis would have been preferable. What was the point in doing this? At least the mechanicals got a refurbishment. Now they have a Fibreglass 308 kit car. What were they thinking?
Looking at the engine at 9:54 and wondering why the water pump pulley is so large. What issue is being solved by having the water pump turn at a lower RPM?
That a lot of work went into the project, there can be no doubt. My question is, “Is this still a Ferrari?” Or is it to be viewed as a former Ferrari that has been resto-modded. I’m asking from an investment perspective.
If viewed from an investment standpoint....for collectability, it takes a significant impact as the only factory component left is the frame, and even that has been altered.
@@josebrinsenojr208 not a collector Ferrari unless the work is done by Michelotto, Pininfarina, Bertone, Dallara, Zagato, or anyone that worked closely in conjunction with Ferrari of the respective time period. But what we have here is a driver's car, and from an investment standpoint, such cars are making a good comeback in the market due to electrification. As the older generation fades out and the younger generation is introduced to the market, cars like this will become more valuable, in my opinion.
It is awesome. But still i wonder what really remains of the original donor car. Only some minor parts of the original metal chassis, and the engine. I'm afraid quite all the car (that was in good shape initially) had to be thrown away (or sold as spares). Body is now fiberglass, interiors are obviously gone, suspension are highly modified.. Does it worth the cost of all this job? It seems easier to build a new one from scratch. finding a ferrari V8 engine should not be difficult. Or at least starting from a crushed car.. i'm sorry. huge perfection job indeed.
This looks like a ‘vetroresina’ 308, so fiberglass body instead of steel. These cars are highly sought after and very valuable. Pretty insane to chop one up!
@@lucasdelfino5358 A 1977 308 Euro version was at 1400kg. The US spec car was around 1500kg. The original fibreglass vetorresina 308 was as low as 1250kg.
What the… Did you actually use a ‘vetroresina’ 308…?! 😳 Why not do it properly and get a 250 SWB or a 300 SL Gullwing, chop that up into a kit car. Honestly, it’s quite painful to watch this sacrilege.
