Glad to see you went for a new rack.. saved yourself a lot of trouble rebuilding the old one!!
That was great advice! Thanks! I hope all is well :)
Franny, if you were a professional restorer, few people could afford your quality of workmanship. The replating of the “gold-look” parts is such a perfect idea for restoring. I love the way you “do things right” and as with the statement another of my heroes goes, “everything is important”, you are definitely one of the best.
Thanks so much!
It’s like putting a Swiss watch together 🤩. So nice you share this with us Franny ! Thank you 🙏
That's the way to do it. Well done Franny.
Fantastic job, labeling, plating, and camera work. Everything i expect from you Fanny, but the one thing I didn't expect is the mouse on the trackpad technique. That's funny;)
Franny, you’re back where we all need to be 👍. Really looking forward to the rest of this amazing machine restored to original specs. Greetings from Naples, FL.
Thanks Tony! The 308 would be a fun car to cruise 5th and Park Shore :)
Your attention to detail is amazing! Very much enjoy your videos.
Stuff looks great. You have the patience of a Saint!
I am seriously impressed by the way you organized all those hundreds of pieces for reassembly, assisted by the pictures you took during disassembly.
Love the way you approach these projects, Franny. I wish the mechanics who do stuff on my car would work the same way! Looking forward to seeing more progress. Greetings from Southern Thailand.
If they worked the same way as she does it would cost you 10 times more I'm afraid.
Wish I had a tenth of your patience and organization! You are a marvel and my inspiration, Franny!! 🔧
Your organization and attention to detail is wonderful to see. Looking forward to many more videos and then the first drive!
Organizating everything prior seems like the obvious 1st step, but it seems so many folks don't... . Your skills here Franny marks you as a top professional in my book! Wow, Great job, and so necessary too. Unfortunate they lost some hardware, but that's water over the dam, and you've gotta just keep moving forward. Super job Franny, thanks for the video :-) .
Thanks so much!
Bummer that the plating company lost some parts - there is no excuse for that. It seems to me that they could easily use divided trays for plating that would allow for groups of parts to be segregated in the bath. Mixing everything together like they do is just poor customer service. Great video (as usual) Franny!
I work in aerospace and we had the same problems! It turned out to be a matter of replacing the personnel.
I'm surprised that's all they lost tbh .
Sorry to hear about the missing parts. I hope everything will work out.
The "tidy" OCD in me was smiling away looking at your array of parts all lined up in tidy rows, ready for grouping into sections! - How do "messys" ever achieve this sort of task?!! Love your work Franny!
Great video!!! Looking forward for the sequence!!
woohoo, how exciting it is when the courier drops off your Ferrari parts!
2 x Ferrari 308 artisans - great journey for both of your cars 🤘🐎
Nicely done. Lost parts are not uncommon with plating and it is normally washers that get lost so don't feel too bad. As it happens there is no need for you to make new washers for that steering mount. I can't account for why Ferrari used thinner washers in that application but I can say that I have seen many arbitrary hardware selections like that before with them. That said I can say with 100% confidence that there is no problem fitting a standard thickness wide diameter washer in that location. Save yourself the trouble and just order some from McMaster Carr.
The only other thing is be sure to use blue loctite on all of the fasteners. It is great to keep the original yellow nylock nuts Ferrari uses and while they are structurally totally ok to re-use the nylock really is a one time use deal. Adding some loctite will keep your assemblies nice and tight for a very long time.
Lastly if you ever see period photos of the factory they would assemble the complete corner with driveshaft and all off of the car and install it as an assembly. This is not practical when doing a restoration so the slower route of assembly on the car the way you are doing is the way to go.
Thanks for that!
I take my hat off to your patience ✌
That Franny patience, diligence, and documentation paid off big time. You are awesome.
The parts look great. That's messed up that they lost some of them. That wouldn't have happened if they had a Franny.
Looking forward to the next video.
Those parts look stunning, great work.
Yay! Early Christmas morning present opening! :)
You are super organised. An inspiration! 👍
I really enjoyed the part where you made order our of the "chaos" of having all those washers and nuts in one bag!! Your organizational skills paid off big time! I hope the videos will come more often now!!!! Good luck with the rebuild...
Franny great to see the parts being reassembled shame about the missing bits but if you can’t remake most of those missing parts we stand no chance the knowledge and skill you have after rebuilding some lovely cars is second to none stay safe 👍👨🏻🏭🇬🇧
Wonderful seeing you again kiddo. The Ferrari is gonna be just beautifully restored 👍🏻
I don't think I have ever sent stuff out to get cad plated and got everything back that I sent. Just the nature of the business I guess...
I like your background music. Cheers!:)
The parts look better than new. I'm looking forward to the further videos. Great Work Franny👍
Your back Good Hope it doesn't snow.
Might want to consider doing diy plating to prevent losing parts
The parts are probably in the bottom of the plating tank.
Thanks.
Fantastic video. Can you please include a link for the places you used for the plating and the Koni rebuild? Thanks!
Nice job as always
Looks like Christmas came early :) So many parts and they look absolutely great.
👍
Great videos!
That’s incredible the attention to detail required. With all the time and effort spent I’m guessing it will be financially viable when you see the finished product?
It already is... :)
Parts look great! I checked McMaster Carr, couldn't find any washers that thin w/ that diameter, so your diy resolution is probably the way to go. Looking forward to more progress!
Thanks! I couldn't find any either :(
There is no assembly line at Ferrari. Just an individual workplace with vine and white bread.
If you are wanting thin washers like that, track down your local shock absorber rebuilder. Motor bike people with know them. They will have shims in almost every thickness and diameter you will ever need. Just wont be plated.
We came up with a solution. You will see in a few more videos...
You aught to get a Dry Ice cleaning shop come over and clean up all the surfaces that need sprucing up. See if you can get the local shop to do it for free advertising for them.
I don't want to remove the factory coating. All that is the factory rust proofing. It may look great after the blasting but you'd need to reapply the coating to protect it...
@@HeidiandFranny I've watched a few Chicago Auto Pros videos and they've shown that the ice doesn't remove the under coating, just makes it look clean and new. Why would a business want to ruin a finish, that's why the ice media and pressures can be adjusted.
It's you car, I'm just a viewer commenting
@@Ordrock7 Totally appreciate the comment! All the demos I've seen it removed all the cosmoline and anything else. Good to know you can leave it. I have two admit that I ended up removing it all from the 3.2 Carrera and it does look great but mostly because it was protected. The top of the engine was way worse than the bottom because no cosmoline.
It is always a tough decision... The car is only original once. Where does patina end and worn out begin? I struggle with that too - especially on the 356.
Excellent video beautiful work. Any chance you can share the link to who does that plating and shock /coil restoration? Thak you for posting your work.
We did not share their link on purpose. We did not want to give them referrals. One company lost some parts, and the other messed the shocks up, and they had to be done twice. I would research at this point, our stuff is dated over three years, and with COVID, many companies have changed. Check the forums like Ferrari Chat. Hopefully, you will find current information that is better. Heidi
Franny, love your videos.
Quick question, who did you use for rebuilding the heads on the 308?
It was a company out of California. The shop handled it. They did a good job though. You might want to float that question on F-Chat... There might be some better places around as well.
@@HeidiandFranny
Ok, thank you Franny.
Anyone, here, ever watch Pink Floyd’s The Wall? Franny’s arrangement of parts on the bench is very reminiscent of Pink’s arrangements of cigarette butts and other detritus on the floor in the movie. 🤣
What are some decent "batch" plating services online? I think everyone says you are prone to lose a few small things when you use these types of services so keep the hard to replace stuff local.
Yeah, I don't know any others... The local shops here are all gone. You can do it yourself, but it is a bit pricey to get started and the chemicals are pretty intense.
Great work!! We have 2 qv's - and I'm not looking forward to all that work, but it's great to see you going through it and taking the time to do it all the right way!
I can't remember how many miles your car has that you had to dig into a full suspension rebuild. Can you share that detail? our 83 GTS has about 45k miles, and the 84 GTB has only 19k, so I'm hoping I have some time :)
Ours has 40 something K. Maybe 47K? The rubber in the bushings was all dry-rotted. Not sure if the shocks were working correctly or not but there were some bumps and thuds in the suspension so hopefully all that will be gone. We'll see! Your '84 GTB sounds amazing!
@@HeidiandFranny hopefully I have some time on both :) originally I wanted to turn my gtb into a 288 GTO clone, but it’s too nice for that. Love your videos, and the diversity of your collection!
Ladies, you need to let me hold the 308 for a few weeks. That being said, let me share my 308 story with ya. My uncle used to work for Payne and Webber and bought a 308. Could not drive a stick for shit. Asked him if I could borrow it for a week as it needed to be worked out. Drove the car around Charlotte and found a dealer. My college buddy, being the evil SOB he was decided to mess with the dealer. We pushed the car into the dealer and you could see the service crew salivating...... then we put put air in the tires and then drove off.
Did the company charge you for plating the missing washers? That would be adding an insult to their foul-up.
Yes... Lol. Heidi has had words with them. She said she would send them a bill ;)
What's your favorite Noosa yogurt flavor?
I noticed that alot of your nuts are the nylock variety, does the plating process harm the locking?? Well done on the rebuild you have great attention to detail 😇😇
They are fine and quite tight actually.
..what does it cost to get all of the hardware plated?
We will answer these questions at the end of our series. We do a video and that is when we tally up all the costs.
@@HeidiandFranny Thanx😃
