    A pure example of Ferrari engine evolution. I have similar photos of my 308 2 valve carby. Not as pretty

    Here's are some short videos.

    Fly By: The Capristo exhaust on these cars is just crazy good.

    Here are the paint measurements on the car (in mils). I have photos to document each measurement and will share those with prospective buyers.

    This is a photo of the paint gauge from the last measurement and it shows the range of what was captured. The gauge seems very straightforward to use but I'm, not an expert so if there are nuances to how to use it I'm not familiar with those.

    What a beautiful example and well sorted indeed. Had I not just picked up a 95 manual Berlinetta rosso barch of similar spec and excellent condition I’d have closed the deal on your car day one.
    If I may inquire - why the change from tubi to Capristo exhaust?

    Congrats on your 355. Rosso Barchetta is a fabulous color and unusual to see a 355 in RB. On the exhaust, I found Tubi wasn’t high pitched enough for my liking. The Capristo is perfect for the sound I wanted.

    such a tired analogy... do people say the same thing when someone buys a house, fixes it up, and sells it on? Anyway, great looking GTB and good mods!

    This appears to be one of the best examples of a 355 available. If I didn’t have a CS, I’d be on this.
    NV plates, do you live in Vegas?

    Hi all. I have an agreement in place to sell the car to a fellow Fchatter. If that deal doesn’t close I’ll post up that the car is still for sale.

    Thanks for all the positive feedback on the car. The buyer is getting a really fabulous 355.

    That poster used to hang at the car wash that I worked at in high school. None of us teenaged boys ever stood around talking about the house—couldn’t have cared less about it. The cars on the other hand...

    Yes, the car was sold to an Fchatter. I tried to change the title of the post to “sold” but couldn’t figure out how to do it.
