I’m sure everybody has heard of a nuts and bolts restoration, but what does that mean. It literally means every item down to the smallest washer is addressed whether is is rechromed or replated to factory finish. No item is left undone. This is a pile of nuts and bolts etc that tomorrow go to the plater. It is every nut, bolt, washer and thingamajig that came off Dino 06450.
The body and frame are now down to bare metal and will now be primed with metal etching primer.
The test stand is ready to go for engine testing next week. It’s always a thrill to start the engine for the first time and hear it roar to life.

Media blasting can be a little scary as it reveals everything. Luckily this Dino had Zero rust, no bondo and accident free. Very rare to find none of this in a 40 year old car. This is a great find by the new owner!
The engine is almost done and and looking gooooood!
The metal work is finishing up and now to the next stage, surfacing.
Stripped and to the blaster tomorrow.
A beautiful day in San Diego for Bella Italia, a car show on San Diego Harbor featuring Ferraris and Lamborghinis. My Dino 07836 picked up another first place award!
