Stumbled across link earlier today and I have ended up reading all 5 pages. Such amazing detail to rebuilding a Ferrari F40 LM. I do dread to think how much was spent on this restoration, but there is no faulting the work involved.

You're not wrong, I had to stop myself Y-Don't-U "go and do something more constructive instead" (those of a certain age will get it) wink
I read about that F40 in Evo a few months back, what a master piece of auto repair and devotion to a cause.

Thats this afternoon written off...... stunning.

Does anyone remember the Toyota Celica rebuild from some scandinavian company. Every single nut and bolt was immaculate.
