...ready for reinstalation in the chassi:

...ready to reinstall engine, I'm smiling because a lot of hard work is behind me....note the rear of very noteworthy racer (built for Chenetti http://www.barchetta.cc/english/All....U.212Inter.htm ) 1953 212 Inter 0275EU in the background patiently awaiting the attention it deserves:

...as can be be noted in this series, when I restore these beautiful machines all painting and prepping is done "prior" to assembly to insure no dirt or overspray can get anywhere it doesn't belong:

...now that's a Classic Look!

...but this is even more Classic and Awesome!

That's amazing. I love looking at the before during and after pictures. This area is a Godsend! Thanks JR!

Cheers

...Gotta Let those Lungs Breathe...Man Whatta Sound..!!

...another Classic Throughbred resurected.

...as a car lover since a small boy, that built models and ran slot cars, being fortunate enough to let that fasination develop into a passion and then a love, then dedicated enough to turn those attributes combined with a natural talent into a carreer, the only thing more rewarding than those final road tests with an owner is watching a true gentleman afficianado and avid enthusiast like Mr. Bob Gregory (blue shirt, sneakers) proudly talking about his Classic Italian Beauty with an admirer.

....08045 is no garage queen, and here it is 10 years later being serviced and tweeked to keep it in top form for the weekly forays into the fray.
