Re:400GT 2+2 Factory Restoration #1324

Gentlemen, I saw that 2+2 (#1324) at the factory in September 2001, and more recently in June 2002 when I went to see Alf Hansen"s beautiful car, #1111. #1324 was an empty shell of its former self by June, and a rusty one at that. I was originally told that the car is a part of the factory collection, not a customer car. It appeared to be in rough shape, but no worse than most examples that have been neglected. Dr. Gambini (manager of the parts and restoration facility) also said that they were preparing a complete electrical schematic for the 2+2 by using #1324 as a guinea pig. It seems that the factory itself does not at present have such documentation (amazing, but not hard to believe.) The shop is big and nice, and if I can get around to it will post some pix of all the usual suspects. --- In VintageLambo@yahoogroups.com, "lamboguy " wrote: > --- In VintageLambo@yahoogroups.com, "raymondstofer > " wrote: > > Just finished the uploading > > > > Raymond > > Nice!Long way to go on that baby.I wish we could get the entire > process photo-documented.Do you think somebody is doing that at the > factory? > > One of the things I love about these factory shops, is the shop > itself.That certainly looks like a nice place to work on cars... > > Cheers, > > Fred
