Ferrari 328 GTS Full Restoration Episode 1 | A Journey From A Basket Case To Show Winner

Ferrari 328 GTS Full Restoration A Journey From A Basket Case Ferrari Into A Show Winner. Thanks for stopping by and taking a look behind the scenes of our new Ferrari 328 GTS restoration project that kicks off Spring of 2024. This car came to me from an international client who saw my prior Ferrari restoration work on the F355 and 328 GTS online and requested if I would take on his challenging project. I knew firsthand it would be a challenging restoration but once the car got here and we realized all the damaged and missing parts it has become very challenging but also rewarding to see the progress so far. Remember there is no such thing as a CHEAP FERRARI! because the parts cost alone will sink most who do not have the budget to resurrect cars in this condition. We are fortunate to have amazing clients who are dedicated to having us work our craft to bring their restorations back to life. I have been working 7 days a week on this car for the last 4 weeks with my team and we have made substantial progress so far. The highlights are part of this video and next Episode 2 you will see the entire chassis and driveline come together to the highest show standards. Once we shake down the mechanicals it is off to our artisan body and paint team to fully strip and repaint the 1986 328 GTS in original Glasurit Rosso Corsa Single Stage paint for the most authentic restoration. I do not believe in base coat clear paint jobs on older cars for many reasons. When the car is at body and paint I will be restoring the entire interior leather and I have already started making a concours quality carpet kit and sourcing all the missing and broken interior parts. I will be replacing missing dash vents, lower dash panels, rear view mirror and more and I will take you guys all along to show you the progress. This car is anticipated to be completed by end of summer 2024 so stay tuned as we work full steam ahead to make this neglected iconic Ferrari into a show winner. I am primarily focusing our restoration team on hard to restore cars such as Ferrari, Porsche,, Shelby , and anything that is not catalog parts driven such as Muscle Cars, Corvettes etc.. I love the challenge to locate and chase all the missing pieces to make cars exceptional with detail when I am finished. The more challenging the more fun for me personally.
