I'm kind of confused by the whole "You're just going to sell it when you're done" comments that are mentioned. If Wizard does the car up to a reliably running, presentable state and then decides to take the option to double his money or more, that's entirely Wizard's choice. Sounds like petty jealousy to be honest. I'm really glad the car is getting some TLC, I honestly expected it to give up completely during the trip in Car Trek 4, so it's earned the work, and regardless of whether it's kept or sold on, it'll be in a much better state than when it first graced our KZbin Algorithm.

yes because old school engineers didn't feel the need to improve something to the point it's useless. They realized that at some point work will need to be done and instead of making it next to impossible to do, they made it easy. For eg: ford eco boost 3.5L where the water pump, a regular fail item, is located inside the timing cover behind the timing components so when the seals go, it dumps coolant into the oil pooching the engine.

I would probably repair the AC just to have it but in my experience the windows are better than the AC, then again it could be the modern refrigerants just dont get as cold. Propane is really cold, more like freon, so that could be an option also.

I watched the mechanic back at 308 the rear bonnet was off there’s a couple other things that were off the car but they just did a timing belt service on it and the mechanic was backing it out of the service bay reving it and it sounded so good and it sticks in my mind to this day you’re gonna have a lot of fun once you get that car straightened out.

You can't put a price on happiness or making a dream come true. If you need practical and economical, that's what they make Hondas and Toyotas for. Car Wizard bought a Ferrari without having to refinance his house or his shop. It CAN be done. This is a car every kid in the 70's and 80's had on their bedroom walls, and now the Car Wizard owns the REAL thing. Better late than never.

@@malcolmhardwick4258 literally no, insurance on a vehicle where I live is close to 300$ for the average cheap car. A Ferrari would be upwards of 500$ a month. Than gas on a car like that would probably cost about another 100$ for day to get it down to the coast for a nice ride. There is nothing financially smart about it, on top of the nearly $100,000 for a good mint model.

I could see him taking it on some Ferrari cruiser event, a point A to cars and coffee type thing where he interacts with the general public asking him questions. Ed and Hoovie could do it as well. With all the KZbinrs with Ferraris of different generations, it would make for some awesome crossover content.

Dear Car Wizard, Great stuff again! Always good to hear from you both Mrs Wizard's got a gem there - when I was on the Ferrari factory bus tour the guide said exactly what you said - Maserati engines are built at the same location as the Ferrari engines. Although it might be a little different from 2018 when I was there.
