I prefer custom made coilover shocks on the Dino rather than the original Koni shocks.  The coilovers allow for simple adjustment to the handling characteristics as well as being able to adjust the ride height. These are custom made by Nicks Forza Ferrari.  The only modification that needs to be made is a slight trimming on the front mounting bracket.Ferrari dino coilover shocks, Jon Gunderson

Ferrari dino metal work, Dino Restoration, Jon Gunderson
The first metal work was started as there was some damage to the tubes that run under the tub where the clutch cable, hydraulic line and starter cable run through.  It was repaired very poorly whomever did the repairs years ago.  These are the things you find when you strip a car and the only way a restoration can really be done properly. The car is now with Steve K. for metal. surfacing and paint.
