#7 of 9 Mondial update.... by chile96 Aug 11, 2007 (5:14 pm)
Well it's been nearly 6wks and everything mechanically has been addressed and solved. All the maintenance has been taken care of and then some. Basically the car was inspected from head to toe and everything was replaced that was broken or questionable.   Monday it's off to the interior restoration place. Putting in all new carpet, stripping and redyeing all leather - seats, console, dash and doors - and putting in new cushions to replace the 20yr old, hard foam from Italy. Have been told he will need the car for a good 3 wks, maybe 4.   After he's done, it's off to one of the premiere detailers in Dallas. He's going to take out a couple of door dings, resotre the plastic intake grills and bring back the original Rossa Corsa luster as if it came out of Maranello yesterday. Ballpark 10days to 2wks for all this.   Many have told me that this is a little "over-the-top" for just a Mondial but I'm a perfectionist and would not be happy if this car was not just that - an award winning Ferrari. Then comes the presentation of the car as a surprise to my step-dad. That will be the most rewarding aspect...   pics to follow Replies to this message: kwest1 (Mar 02, 2008 9:16 am)

Replying to: chile96 (Aug 11, 2007 5:14 pm) Last month I purchased a black over red 1988 Mondial 3.2 cab. I hope the repairs you ordered resulted in a vehicle that you're proud of. Send me a photo, when convenient - and enjoy the ride.   Ken
#9 of 9 Congrats on your new Mondial!!! by chile96 Mar 02, 2008 (5:44 pm)
well the car is in Houston and I'm out in West TX so pics will be hard to come by for a little while. Nevertheless, the shock on my step-dad's face was priceless - one of the top moments of my life to date
