Please take time to create a photo inventory before you send anything off to the painters or platers. This is to protect you and the outside companies. You have a ton of small parts there
Been there! Makes me cringe putting everything in one box, I took photos, bagged and labelled everything and still struggled to remember where everything went.
He probably has it imprinted in his brain. His passion for Ferrari’s seems to be a day in day out hobby. I don’t think I’ve seen him work on any other make of car.
I admire the quality and attention to detail. I could never do it, I don't have the patience. I can't imagine what a professional would charge to do all the stuff your doing yourself. Truly a heroic effort.
Have to give a huge shout out to whoever is letting you use their garage and tools full time. You could not ask for a better friend! Without that you would be dead in the water before you even began.
When this all started and you said you'd restore it all, I thought you'd just be like other youtubers that get the engine running, fix the leaks and detail the engine bay and paint. BUT MAN, you are really going to town on this one. At the end, it'll be worth quite a bit, and all documented on video.. Massive efforts and patience from you. We all appreciate :)
How are you going to remember which nut and bolt goes where? No labeling? Still a monumental task. This is my favorite UA-cam entertainment currently, glued to each episode! Good luck brother!
The most overriding aspect I take from your videos is your never ending optimism! Honestly, I'd have been in a crumpled heap after the first video but you just keep striding onwards and upwards, nothings a problem. Superb lesson and inspiration to everyone really, and absolutely great to watch you!
My Mind is totally blown! I actually started feeling slightly sick at the thought of you working through all that lot on your lonesome, then having to trust that nothing will get lost when its away, and finally remember how to reassemble it all in a month of two. Hats off to you buddy, you are braver than me this time round. I cant wait to see the next installments, if you need a labourer to help take some of the strain then like many others I would be delighted to help if you need it! Amazing!
BTW, time to get the air compressor out to reinflate the tires on the 360! Thanks for the wonderful update, what a labor of love (and sweat) putting this BB back together.
Massive respect with the boxer, stepping your skills up to proper resto guru from ambitious diy mechanic, respect, and how you have the patience to create such pro content while undoubtedly struggling for days and probably losing a lot of skin. Cant wait for the next one.
Hi Scott, When I do restoration, I tag and number each item, with masking tape or x-mas tags, I make a logbook with all the numbers in and a note to ref a photo taken or preposed works, I put small bits in takeaway tubs and Sharpie on the lid, It sounds bit anal...lol but it has really helped me not get confued and I don't feel so over my head with things...! Love the channel Scott, Your doing a great job...be positive and don't take any notice of negative losers...(: (:
My god man, how the hell are you keeping track of everything! I’d be sitting there with a million little baggies labeling everything. Guaranteed if I didn’t I’d be loosing bits left right and center.
Your commitment to this project is inspirational. I’m sure it is as daunting as it will be satisfying, and we’re all by your side to support you as best we can. Keep up the great work!
Aside from the cost, having to film all this to keep us eager punters happy, I genuinely don’t know how you keep track of where everything goes on something this mind boggling complex… I’ve said it before, but I’ll say it again, best project on UA-cam bar none!!! Brilliant work lad!!!👌
As a programmer, I found this is equivalent to revamp a 20+ year old software down to each piece of source code, line by line, with almost no modification in code structure. This is complete hardcore restoration / maintenance, no modern transformation, just pure OEM restoration. Keep the huge will and perseverance, and enjoy the glory afterword.
Just think how much you're fans will love you for having done this the right way, though. This car deserves your best. And, hey, "heat it and beat it" is an accepted disassembly technique.
As a Mercedes collector, I know that a job like this on a classic Mercedes 300 SL from the 1950's would cost at least $500,000 if a good shop were to attempt such a restoration. You are saving a lot of money.
Exactly the reason why i ceased trying to repair and maintain my classic car myself. I just have the garage do it, a very experienced guy! A deep bow to all this work you are able to do! Good thing you’re filming everything! Otherwise impossible to rebuild the puzzle!!
This is some of your best work since the 308, 'cause you're one of the few I see getting right in there, down and dirty! Fantastic. I think you'll be justifiably proud of your work.
A few years ago I restored my gt750 Suzuki motorcycle & feel your pain , I have a fair sized garage & with 2 other motorcycles I had to reassemble it in a 10ft space & was forever looking for the parts, thoroughly enjoyed doing it, learned a lot from it,so I’m following your restoration, you could get yourself a small bead blasting cabinet & do a lot of the small stuff yourself, top job mate
Scott, i did a ground up rebuild, full nut and bolt before we had phone cameras, video and the internet. I loved the finish it was all worth it, yours is just alot more money. Take your time and you will have something so special and that is the memories and that you did it yourself
I’m amazed you are taking this car apart like this. When you were asking AMMO NYC about how to clean it properly, I never thought you would go down this path. Keep up the great work.
I hope you have cataloged each piece. Because from the mountain of pieces that I see disassembled, I think it would be impossible to remember exactly where they are to be assembled ...
Definitely I feel total solidarity with you when brushing dirt and rust... so many time and pain but value of a restoration come from those moments!! Complexity and nobility of Ferrari comes also through plenty of bits for suspensions and hubs. Anyway quality of those original cast parts after 40year is incredible! Keep going, great videos, amazing job! Go go GO we cant see the time when replayed and powdered parts will go back again!!
That is great! Way beyond what I did on the 911. I took over 900 photos and still didn't have enough. I was sooo glad I had the video too. For me, it was all the bolts and such in context. Did it have a washer? was it thick? All the plating came back in a single bag. Hundreds of pieces... Even with all the photos of them grouped in assemblies, it took a lot of work to sort it all out. We also ceramic coated all the exhaust and it looks killer. Did it on the 308 and it is holding up really well. But only a few shops here can do the ceramic. This is going to look sooo good when you start putting it all back together! That will be so fun! Awesome work as always!! F
Never give up! You got this bud! We have been watching, and this will run again on the streets! No big deal man. Nuts and bolts. Not sending a rocket to the moon. For cryin out loud. Do this! Awesome channel.
Once this car is finished you will be entitled to all the bragging rights because 99% of all the work comes from your hands. Hats off to you for rather spending your time restoring this master piece than leaving it up to others to fix it up for you.
On a restoration project such as this, I would invest in a glass bead cabinet for all of these small parts. Additionally, when you reassemble the CV joints, I would use a grease called Neo grease. It’s a cost effective high quality grease that I use in the drive axles of Porsche race cars. You can also use a scotchbrite pad on a die grinder to polish the CV joint races which will make them last longer.
Love watching you work. You've got way of showing how, as well as what, that is equally informative and entertaining - that's just a brilliant combination. If learning was always like this, everyone would be a genius! Thanks a lot.
Next level restoration!! I am so pleased you decided to go all the way, unbelievable amount of work though, your eyes will start turning everything you see into Ferrari Boxer parts!!
When you put your CV joints back together be sure to look closely at the race and make sure it is symmetrical. One side may be wider or curved a little different. If it is different and you have it flipped when installing the joint will bind.
incredible how much effort you put into this project to make it absolutely new again... hopefully you know what has to fit where when the puzzle needs to be put together again, love it Scott ...
Wow I do hope no-one takes this as a DIY guide! :) You’re really taking EVERYTHING apart.. Uneccessary if you just want to freshen things up & change bushings etc. The coil: replace (its old) the AC compressor: replace (no preassure for years destroys the gaskets) FULL POINTS FOR THE LEVEL OF ENERGY THO!! 🤘🏻
Doing a fantastic job mate. Keep it up. And everything you're learning will make future projects much easier, less timing consuming and ultimately cheaper to do.
Much respect to you Scott for the work you are putting in. If you did a 80% resto you, or anyone, would wonder why it didn't go the full 100. It's an all in move and I'm so willing you to succeed with this project.
Thank you for for showing us how hard these restorations are in real life,I have been watching too much car SOS and thought that I did not know how to Restore my Jensen interceptor.Thank you for keeping real.
Looks crazy with all them nuts and bolts.....but for people that love to work stuff like this allways find the wright nuts and bolts to put it back together, I really understand why you are doing all the work for the looks even if you dont see it afterall.
Someone walked away on this car before, but you didn't. The passion is what keeps cars like this from fading into rusted scrap. It's going to be stunning, like a time capsule.
While I may run an F car, it is with extreme interest to see the esoteric suspension and drive gear on display and disassembled of the sublime Ferrari BB. Its also interesting how Ferrari makes the less important things very light (a less is more ethos), yet overbuilds where needed in driveline, suspension and brakes. Making them ahead of their time compared to contemporary road cars. A great endurance racing heritage on display. I like how you roll and appreciate the content!
Glad to be following. I’m new to watching UA-cam and subscribing etc (no I have not been living under a rock) I’m very much into motors and this content is fascinating! Very well put together and I really enjoy watching what you do with these cars. So, thank you for doing what you do.
Dude. Been watching this whole build. I cannot believe how monumental a task this is. Kudos for days. My old 911 seems like a walk in the park in comparison.
Awesome stuff man! It’s so cool to see the whole process of your restoration. To tackle a job like this is really incredible. I look forward to every new video you post.
Scott. For the hubs, I have bought a 3 spoke hydraulic puller. It is like a bottle jack and it is so much better than the 3 spoke with the drill you used. 25 gbp on ebay and does amazing work
Wow! Some incredible work achieved since the last video Scott. This has really changed as a project to a complete labour of love restoration. Well done 👍🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I think we all agree you made the right decision to do nut and bolt restoration. And it is good to see you are making so much work yourself! Keep up the good work!
So glad to see this project moving on. What a massive job! But, it's great to see how thorough you go through it all. It might be massive headaches from time to to time, but the rewards be well worth it. 👌 Keep it up and good luck puzzeling it all back together later on.
Kompliments, dass der wirklich ALLE Teile auseinander nimmt , sich ansieht , neu gestaltet und dann erst wieder zusammenbaut. Und das grundsätzlich, Prima !!
10,000 piece jigsaw 😱💪 All that cleaning 😭 am gonna be starting an EK9 Type R shortly or as soon as my back improves so am getting tired already looking at yourself with the grinder and wire wheel. When I use the grinder and wire wheel I find a full clear visor great for all the wires that hit the face. Keep up the great work 💪💪💪
Oboy - that moment when you realize your frame-off resto or custom build is now one vehicle taking up the space of three:) Clear plastic sandwich-bags and a roll of masking tape are lifesavers when it comes to keeping everything in order. The other option is to find a couple of bolts laying around after you've finished the project and spend many a sleepless night wondering when something is going to fall apart or blow up.
Once you have everything back from plating , powder coating , the chassis and body paintwork done ,,,,, you will enjoy the assembly with everything being fresh . I can`t wait to go all the way through my 81` Porsche 928 Comp package car .
This guy is amazing! I bet he can complete the project. The effort and life he is putting into the whole process can be 1000 times more than what the car may worth.
I have absolutely loved all the hard work you have done on this. Been a joy to watch this process. I think you are nuts for doing it. but its fun to watch.
As always, your dedication and commitment to this project are breath-taking! This will quite simply be the best Boxer on the planet by the time you're finished.
When you are done with it...if you go 100% original...think of it this way... you could use the value of the car by selling it to fund another "bigger" project...maybe not an F40 yet but...something to get you there. Cheers, loving the series.
Zinc coating on ALL THE BOLTS !!! TRUST ME! The bolts will stay rust resistent for years. Good luck ! I still rewatch the old videos just because i like them.
Honestly coming from someone who does restorations you have really made your life hard not bagging and labeling all the nuts and bolts and parts you are getting plated
What's more fun than tearing it all apart? Remembering how to put it all back together again! Best of luck, this is an awesome project and restoration!
I am not much of a car guy. I do like these video's though. However I am very much an avid watch collector, so I can give a bit of insight on the sponsor. These are very solid watches. It's not like a mvmt or anything, that's a cash grab from some marketing guy, who sells $20 Chinese watches for $200+. These are proper watches created by a watch enthusiast. The mechanical movement is an eta movement, and this is pretty much the best 3rd party movement company you can source from. These movements are swiss made, and have been used in Omega's, as they are owned by the same company (Swatch group). Very few eta movements are found in $1,000 watches. This is a watch you can be proud to own, and will last for decades.
Mate we all should admire your energy, drive and courage to even take on this resto. Hate to think how much $$$$$$ this would cost here in Australia, here there would be 10 guys in white jackets discussing for hrs which nut to remove 1st. Good stuff champ and wish you the best in your challenge ahead
14:25 to get it back on real quick is to heat up the hub in an oven and put the shaft in the freezer, and then it will fall right into place without hamering or the need to press it in place.
Got a flat on the Strad Rata - nearside mate 👍 Lovely job continues - this is going to be so special when it’s done. Not worth bagging the parts up, so it’s easy to ID what goes where? You’ll never remember where it all goes!
Total hats off to you, that is one hell of a task to do on your own. You could have held a UA-cam call out for men in sheds to do the various parts for you. They'd have loved it! Fantastic channel, loving our hard work and enthusiasm!
The ring that you just made round again was probably distorted by over extension of the suspension in either droop or bump. Worth checking the bump stops or what ever the BB has to limit suspension movement.
I'm so interested in this build. I am amazed how many bits that need to be taken off, mind boggling for you i'm sure but a vision once restored it'll be an amazing achievement. Keep those vids coming 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
A litre of Fertan rust converter will make sure grit blasted parts are fully clear. Also use a phosphate primer before powder coat aluminium is best etch primed before coating. Talk to Chris Ward at CJ Ward in Burton on Trent. He does a lot for bike and car restorers.
Squirting in diesel will dissolve the rubber/tac , it depends on the tac used for a sealant . Diesel usually works but it needs time to DE solve/Soften the Tac/Sealant and can stink if it breaks /leaks into the car. Squirt it in and leave it for about 5 days to soften the TAC and then use the line/normal method to cut/push/pull/drag a piece of wire..... I would recommend high tensile fishing line. CHEAP AS CHIPS!
Like so many others have mentioned, I cannot help but to keep thinking, how is he going to get this all back together? I am also curious about lubricants, greases, torque values, etc. What resources do you have to find all of that information? It seems like it might be tough to come by on a low production vehicle like this. I feel like it would take me years to complete this. This is going to be an incredible project, I cannot wait!
great question and you are very correct on old cars like these limited production the info is scarce. I have WSM and other than that its a case of asking or researching
There are alot of Ferrari's all over UA-cam lately. This one is by far the most interesting. It helps that this is my favorite Ferrari of the era. I hope it looks like the best specimen of itself like it did when it was parked...
1:53 Tagging and bagging, boxes boxes boxes. Having a system or creating one to keep the parts organized will help tremendously. You seem to have a serious case of project creep. I once had that. The car is still sitting....

CRITICAL!
Been there! Makes me cringe putting everything in one box, I took photos, bagged and labelled everything and still struggled to remember where everything went.
He’s videoing the whole thing!
He must literally know this car back to front inside out otherwise there’s no way to know where the hundreds of small parts go.
He probably has it imprinted in his brain. His passion for Ferrari’s seems to be a day in day out hobby. I don’t think I’ve seen him work on any other make of car.
I admire the quality and attention to detail. I could never do it, I don't have the patience. I can't imagine what a professional would charge to do all the stuff your doing yourself. Truly a heroic effort.
Take it one step at a time.
Or one job at a time.
Scott is actually making good progress on this build.
Have to give a huge shout out to whoever is letting you use their garage and tools full time. You could not ask for a better friend! Without that you would be dead in the water before you even began.
it's Carrozzeria in Maidenhead, he did make a special video promoting them and thanking them for the space
When this all started and you said you'd restore it all, I thought you'd just be like other youtubers that get the engine running, fix the leaks and detail the engine bay and paint.

We all appreciate :)
How are you going to remember which nut and bolt goes where? No labeling? Still a monumental task. This is my favorite UA-cam entertainment currently, glued to each episode! Good luck brother!
The car manual will show you what is what and what goes where.
I would be more worried about parts going missing.
It's on video..
@@betterireland1 are you talking about the owner’s manual?
@@Big_M_T No, probably the workshop repair manual..
The most overriding aspect I take from your videos is your never ending optimism!

Hi Scott, When I do restoration, I tag and number each item, with masking tape or x-mas tags, I make a logbook with all the numbers in and a note to ref a photo taken or preposed works, I put small bits in takeaway tubs and Sharpie on the lid, It sounds bit anal...lol but it has really helped me not get confued and I don't feel so over my head with things...!

I have no idea either. Even if you just asked me to put everything he took apart in this video I couldn’t do it! And this is just one video!!!
Shame he hasn't recorded any of it isn't it?!
ITT a bunch of people who have no idea the amount of work it takes to disassemble and reassemble an ENTIRE CAR.
But it’s on video!
My god man, how the hell are you keeping track of everything! I’d be sitting there with a million little baggies labeling everything. Guaranteed if I didn’t I’d be loosing bits left right and center.
Been there, done that. And it was even not to this extent, but man, was I happy and thankful for Zip Lock ! 😳

love how you just throw all the bolts in the "plating box" together like I would remember what was what 10 mins later
Exactly my thought, every nut and bolt should have been placed in a plastic bag with a note where it should go....
I learned this lesson the hard way on my 914 restoration
@@henricloven I think he knows what he is doing. Have more faith.
I bagged and tagged everything only for the plater to give me a big box back as one so it really doesn't matter
How many of these has he restored? Nobody is that good unless you have done it 30 40 times over
Doing a fantastic job mate. Keep it up. And everything you're learning will make future projects much easier, less timing consuming and ultimately cheaper to do.

Wow! Some incredible work achieved since the last video Scott. This has really changed as a project to a complete labour of love restoration. Well done 👍🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I think we all agree you made the right decision to do nut and bolt restoration. And it is good to see you are making so much work yourself! Keep up the good work!
Hi Scott glad you are going with the original colour great work as ever all the best Les.
So glad to see this project moving on. What a massive job! But, it's great to see how thorough you go through it all. It might be massive headaches from time to to time, but the rewards be well worth it. 👌 Keep it up and good luck puzzeling it all back together later on.
Kompliments, dass der wirklich ALLE Teile auseinander nimmt , sich ansieht , neu gestaltet und dann erst wieder zusammenbaut. Und das grundsätzlich, Prima !!
10,000 piece jigsaw 😱💪 All that cleaning 😭 am gonna be starting an EK9 Type R shortly or as soon as my back improves so am getting tired already looking at yourself with the grinder and wire wheel. When I use the grinder and wire wheel I find a full clear visor great for all the wires that hit the face. Keep up the great work 💪💪💪
Oboy - that moment when you realize your frame-off resto or custom build is now one vehicle taking up the space of three:) Clear plastic sandwich-bags and a roll of masking tape are lifesavers when it comes to keeping everything in order. The other option is to find a couple of bolts laying around after you've finished the project and spend many a sleepless night wondering when something is going to fall apart or blow up.
Once you have everything back from plating , powder coating , the chassis and body paintwork done ,,,,, you will enjoy the assembly with everything being fresh . I can`t wait to go all the way through my 81` Porsche 928 Comp package car .
This guy is amazing! I bet he can complete the project. The effort and life he is putting into the whole process can be 1000 times more than what the car may worth.
I have absolutely loved all the hard work you have done on this. Been a joy to watch this process. I think you are nuts for doing it. but its fun to watch.
As always, your dedication and commitment to this project are breath-taking! This will quite simply be the best Boxer on the planet by the time you're finished.
When you are done with it...if you go 100% original...think of it this way... you could use the value of the car by selling it to fund another "bigger" project...maybe not an F40 yet but...something to get you there. Cheers, loving the series.
Finding some grease is better than not at all for sure. Exciting man! looking forward to the next vid.
Zinc coating on ALL THE BOLTS !!! TRUST ME! The bolts will stay rust resistent for years. Good luck ! I still rewatch the old videos just because i like them.
It’s good to see you took your workbench/ storage bench for a drive
Honestly coming from someone who does restorations you have really made your life hard not bagging and labeling all the nuts and bolts and parts you are getting plated
Thoroughly enjoying your commitment to this car project! Excellence!! Inspirational!!
What's more fun than tearing it all apart? Remembering how to put it all back together again! Best of luck, this is an awesome project and restoration!
I know the feeling! Wrapping up a similar project right now.
I am not much of a car guy. I do like these video's though. However I am very much an avid watch collector, so I can give a bit of insight on the sponsor. These are very solid watches. It's not like a mvmt or anything, that's a cash grab from some marketing guy, who sells $20 Chinese watches for $200+. These are proper watches created by a watch enthusiast. The mechanical movement is an eta movement, and this is pretty much the best 3rd party movement company you can source from. These movements are swiss made, and have been used in Omega's, as they are owned by the same company (Swatch group). Very few eta movements are found in $1,000 watches. This is a watch you can be proud to own, and will last for decades.
it truly is a lovely watch ive been wearing a lot this week
Mate we all should admire your energy, drive and courage to even take on this resto. Hate to think how much $$$$$$ this would cost here in Australia, here there would be 10 guys in white jackets discussing for hrs which nut to remove 1st. Good stuff champ and wish you the best in your challenge ahead
14:25 to get it back on real quick is to heat up the hub in an oven and put the shaft in the freezer, and then it will fall right into place without hamering
or the need to press it in place.
Can't wait for the next episode in the Ferrari BB Project. Fantastic work you do.
Got a flat on the Strad Rata - nearside mate 👍
Lovely job continues - this is going to be so special when it’s done.
Not worth bagging the parts up, so it’s easy to ID what goes where? You’ll never remember where it all goes!
Great job, Scott!! Love the progress made!
Awesome video. Hats off for the patience and dedication.
Total hats off to you, that is one hell of a task to do on your own. You could have held a UA-cam call out for men in sheds to do the various parts for you. They'd have loved it! Fantastic channel, loving our hard work and enthusiasm!
The ring that you just made round again was probably distorted by over extension of the suspension in either droop or bump. Worth checking the bump stops or what ever the BB has to limit suspension movement.
I'm so interested in this build. I am amazed how many bits that need to be taken off, mind boggling for you i'm sure but a vision once restored it'll be an amazing achievement. Keep those vids coming 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
HOLY SHEEP SH*T! You have gone way beyond where I thought you would with this one! Keep up the good work!
A litre of Fertan rust converter will make sure grit blasted parts are fully clear. Also use a phosphate primer before powder coat aluminium is best etch primed before coating.
Talk to Chris Ward at CJ Ward in Burton on Trent. He does a lot for bike and car restorers.
Squirting in diesel will dissolve the rubber/tac , it depends on the tac used for a sealant . Diesel usually works but it needs time to DE solve/Soften the Tac/Sealant and can stink if it breaks /leaks into the car. Squirt it in and leave it for about 5 days to soften the TAC and then use the line/normal method to cut/push/pull/drag a piece of wire..... I would recommend high tensile fishing line. CHEAP AS CHIPS!
Like so many others have mentioned, I cannot help but to keep thinking, how is he going to get this all back together? I am also curious about lubricants, greases, torque values, etc. What resources do you have to find all of that information? It seems like it might be tough to come by on a low production vehicle like this. I feel like it would take me years to complete this. This is going to be an incredible project, I cannot wait!
great question and you are very correct on old cars like these limited production the info is scarce. I have WSM and other than that its a case of asking or researching
There are alot of Ferrari's all over UA-cam lately. This one is by far the most interesting. It helps that this is my favorite Ferrari of the era. I hope it looks like the best specimen of itself like it did when it was parked...
Really is nut and bolt! All credit to you Scott - I think it's the right thing to do. The quantity of bits tho - I hope you're keeping notes!
1:53 Tagging and bagging, boxes boxes boxes. Having a system or creating one to keep the parts organized will help tremendously. You seem to have a serious case of project creep. I once had that. The car is still sitting....
Dude, what a hugely overwhelming project. I'm sure it's rewarding and frustrating at the same time. You'll have content for the next 2 years.
Love videos like this!! I know I am not the only one in the world with OCD! Great job!
I usually take pictures of all my fasteners and record what they came off of. The factory parts diagrams are very helpful for re-assembly too.
