[@completemoney]

In my opinion I think the videos fixing the older exotics is extremely interesting and fun to watch. A lot of people would never buy old out of warranty exotic and when you buy them and fix them it shows people you shouldn’t be to scared to take on a fun project 😂

[@completemoney]

Especially when Ferrari wants $4700 for a fix or part and you fix it with a harbor freight tool and you’re only $36 into it 😄

[@willicat44]

The reliability of the older cars can be less problematic than the current models. NOT problemless,..just easier to repair most times.

It is good to see the car inventory and hear the updated stories behind them. I always a little confused with this channel. There will be a couple of videos on a particular vehicle, but we're sometimes left hanging as to how the issues are resolved with the repairs, if he sold them, or gave up on them, etc...Look forward to next year here.

[@demetrisboukis5181]

I agree with this statement. But hearing about the problems and the knowledge he has is the real value here.

[@DucNguyen-bd5ir]

I would 3D print the surround and replace the radio with a modern one which would be lighter. The plastic below probably just need the plastic clips rebuilt.

[@muskokamike127]

Yeah, modern ones don't have a cd changer/player inside and are only a face about 1 1/2" deep and weigh nothing. For what it's worth, I don't know why they even sell aftermarket stereos, you have everything it does in your cellphone. All you need is the headphone jack and the usb and a way to hold it in the dash. for that matter, you could also just use a 7 or 8 inch cheap tablet, that would do all the same things. Just velcro it to a flat piece of plastic.

[@scottyV1000]

I wonder if Ferrari is still using that rubberized plastic that turns to sticky goo after a few years?

In a time where it feels like we need at least $70,000 for a fun sports car, I think it’s absolutely amazing to see how you solve what should be complete nightmares with just a bit of ingenuity.

For the Ferrari dash, scan it, then have it CNC machined out of your choice of metal. Probably cheaper, and definitely stronger. Different types of prototyping and other shops would be happy to do it.

[@thenaturecreater8906]

I'm so happy to hear you are keeping the zr-1

[@ejohnson2720]

Regarding the plastic Kenwood radio surround(approx 16:40) have you considered getting it remanufactured by a parts printer? Folks that do that can recreate common and complex plastic parts. Depending on the rarity of the part required it can be SIGNIFICANTLY cheaper than trying to buy a rare exotic car part on the open market from a diminishing supply pool. It can also give you another advertising stream by featuring multiple reputable 3D printing manufacturers that have figured in the success of getting your car projects repaired and ready to drive! Good Luck!

[@robinharrison3907]

Always a great watch 👍👍

[@TheRealAlpha2]

Only solution I can think of on the 612 Bezel situation is good CAD skills and a 3D printer. Honestly, at this point for cars with trim parts that aren't made any more, 3D prints are probably the only solution that won't cost multiple thousands.

[@neoanderson7]

Bloody hell, you've got so many vehicles. Do you have fleet insurances or something?? :-) I'm sure you've noticed the lower control arm bushing is pretty torn. Happy you got the Bilstein shocks, but you should get that taken care of. I'm sure you can find the center bezel for the 612 somehwere on the used market. Pretty sure you can get a more modern 2DIN unit to replace that ancient Kenwood. As for the 430, yes, get the manual conversion. There's no question that's the better way to go. Manual swap anything wit the rubbish F1 system. Not only will they make them more reliable, it'll increase the value of the vehicle. Hope you had a great Xmas and if we don't hear from you soon, Happy New Year!!

Regarding the Ferrari radio trim...I'm sure one of these young bloods out there could get fancy with a 3d scanner, but being in the same age bracket as you Sam this is my advice. Grab a piece of paper and make a template then cop yourself a $15 plastic welding tool from Harbor freight and go to town on a scrap piece of plastic found anywhere in your barn or salvage auction...you get my point. After you do a test to see if it fits, and some film or wrap or leather can cover it in any color or optic you please.
