Lou, my friend, you're showing everyone who thinks that a restoration is just throwing things together that it really ISN'T that. It's a lot of work, and I'm sure everyone will agree with me that you have a lot of determination and we admire it! Good work Lou, good work!

Your frustration will be someone else's godsend one day because all your work here will live on and be no end of help to others. The frustration will also be long forgotten when you are finished and enjoying the end product. Fantastic work as usual Lou.

Yep, it's an old car. An amalgam of old parts and repro parts, a bunch of which aren't original to the car. What could possibly go wrong? Lots, as your video clearly demonstrates. What your video also demonstrates is the time and patience it takes to work through each obstacle. Viewers of the finished product will never know what it took. Glad to see the time and trouble you take to get it right. Much respect. I love every minute of every video.

I hate 5 minute jobs, they suck. I've never had a 5 minute job ever take less than an hour. Great job Lou.

We feel for ya Lou but look on the bright side, you’ll be cruising in a fully restored 308 Ferrari in no time!! Many of us think the 308 is one of the most beautiful Ferrari’s ever to roll out the Ferrari factory door. And yours is fully restored!! Did I mention you have a fully restored Ferrari 308? LoL keep your eye on the prize Lou!

As my Dad used to tell me, when you're stuck on something, step away for a day then get back to it.
You'll see the solution then. It's looking good!

Great to see you are back at it... You are facing some hard steps at the same time. Frustrating, to say the least... When you finally drive away in your shiny 308, you (and we all) will see it all was worth it... Best regards...

I bought an upholstery kit for a project I had. I was so flustered with it until I realized all the logos were sewn upside down. Had to send pictures to the company I got it from. Looked good when project was completed but trying to get the problem fixed took a while.
Nice Benny Hill reference. I love this project.

Really enjoyed this video, I can see you’re not happy showing issues that you couldn’t solve quickly, but it’s nice to see something real. I imagine many of the fitment issues relate to huge production tolerances at Ferrari at the time of manufacture. Great work Lou, have enjoyed all your videos, thanks for sharing.

Thanks for giving us another episode, keep at it, it might be slow but your thoroughness is a joy to watch and I for one don't really want this series to end, though you will definitely get there!
