Peterpools Posted April 2, 2022 Share Posted April 2, 2022 Mark Great to see you back at the bench and working on your Ferrari 330Pa Two sounds in this world that are music to my ears: the sounds of RR Merlin and the sounds of a Ferrari 12 cylinder on race day. Your 330P engine is looking mighty good and the nose clip finish is top notch. Keep 'em comin Peter 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The paintjob is smoot and shiny, with a gloss coat it will be super. I guess, the slightly orange tint is due to lighting conditions. Cheers Rob Yes indeed its because the Light Will post beter pic after the clear coat. 21 hours ago, Peterpools said: Mark Great to see you back at the bench and working on your Ferrari 330Pa Two sounds in this world that are music to my ears: the sounds of RR Merlin and the sounds of a Ferrari 12 cylinder on race day.

Peterpools Posted June 12, 2022 Share Posted June 12, 2022 Hi Mark Still drooling over the finish on your Ferrari - it's awesome. Yesterday I clear coated the GT40 and polishing will be tomorrow afternoon after my doctor appointment. If I can come half as close to your deep, mirror shine, I'll be one happy camper for sure.
