You just gotta love this guy
completely rebuilding a crashed F40
Congrats to the man

How much cash did it take to rebuild it :question:

Dj Dirk · Sep 2, 2002

I wonder that myself, i haven't read everything yet.
But it took him a bit over a year to rebuild her

Tifoso_Boy · Sep 3, 2002

Judging by the pic, I bet that took alot of patience

I wonder If that pretty baby will ever be the same.

Tifoso_Boy · Sep 3, 2002

I wonder if that guy could do something for this poor 'redhead' :question:

I'm willing to give that to her, even in the condition she's in.
It wouldn't matter to me, if i have to place her in a garage box for a few years, but eventually i will take care of her and bring that beauty back to life

I hate to see a Ferrari that has been mistreated or damaged in any way

wannabe · May 10, 2003

That is AMAZING!
I don't know about how much money it takes, but skill, time, a fully equipped garage and an understanding family probably help!

Andrew · May 10, 2003

I'd like to have that guy posting in the tech section. He could tell us all how to build our own F40 from scrap.

Bart · May 10, 2003

Gee, I wonder if I would allow this guy to work on my car.

Joke!

That guy did a great job. He must have an understanding wife.

:green:

Wow. So when something is rebuilt like this how real is it? Does Ferrari have spare F40 parts? or does this get rebuilt using parts from another F40?

Dj Dirk · May 10, 2003

also check out Forza 42 and 45 on a burned down F40 wich has been rebuild to an F40 LM

El Wayne · May 11, 2003

Dirk, the car being discussed (by the owner, rebuilders, and others) in the link I provided is the same that was featured in the Forza articles you mention.

Dj Dirk · May 11, 2003

ah, i hadn't read the article yet, and this one looked like it was burned down even more then the one in Forza
