Some progress pictures as Oro Kelso comes back together wearing it’s Pininfarina special color.
Oro Kelso Progress
Brake Calipers
Doing calipers today. Taking apart to rebuild after they are replated cad yellow.
Dino GT 04502
I owned the Dino for a short while and planned on restoring it due to it’s rare color Rosso Cordoba Metallizzato. I got a call from a guy who needed a Dino to run in a rally he was doing and this is the one he had to have. So bye bye Dino.
Porsche 356 SC
My first sports car as I headed off to BYU. I quickly graduated to 911’s but slowly graduated from BYU!
Interior Work
The interior pieces are being covered in Dino Vinyl and the dash with mousehair from the Netherlands.
73 Dino Gt #04936
This is the second restoration I did. It is a 73 GT, very rare in that it is one of 5 USA models that came from the factory with “Flares and Chairs” a special package with flared wheel housings, wider Campagnolo wheels and seats similar to the Ferrari Daytona.
74 GTS #07836
This is a 74 Dino Spyder painted in Blue Dino Metallizzato. I spent 2 years along with my son Jeff doing a 2 year total nuts and bolts restoration. I plan on keeping it forever!
Oro Kelso
This Dino was bought in boxes by the owner and was sent to Steve Kouracos for surfacing and paint. After some research it was found that this car was one of 3 special Pininfarina colors painted at the factory in Oro Kelso. Being as rare as it was the owner decided to go with the original color. This car arrived today to be put back together. I’ve already had all the interior pieces recovered and chrome redone. After inventory there were many parts that needed to be sourced. Reassembly starts tomorrow.
