Hi Kidge,
Welcome to the forum.

Looks like you have done a very nice project that will garner a lot of attention and be fun to drive. Yeehaw.

I brought one 275GTB4 back from the dead - rolled over during a hillclimb in Nevada and killed the driver.

And put a fair bit of time into restoring another, a very early 250GTB 6/C that held the GT record on the Mulsanne at 192mph.

Sure is nice to see such a complete build-up on your project.

Hi Kidge

Welcome from a UK classic car lover, collector.

Lovely car a classic Ferrari and I've been fortunate to own a 246GT, so I know the thrill of owning such an original classic.

However I've got to ask what's your interest in this site?, as GRP replicas are what drives folk on here to learn the complexities of metalshaping so as to avoid the neanderthal moulding & clagging of plastic car bodies......
