The last English gentleman spent quite a fortune into the mechanics to rebuilt
|
|
everything which needed to be done to use it frequently. The work has been
|
|
accomplished mostly by the well known Ferrari workshop of Terry Hoyle TDH
|
|
Classics Ltd in Essex/England. In this time the engine has been inspected and
|
|
dyno tested with a result of 300 bhp at 6000 rpm. The engine has been checked
|
|
as well with a leak down test showing full compression on each cylinder. We are
|
|
pleased to present all the service records and restoration bills to the next owner.
|
|
While the C4 has been in England the last owner asked Ferrari for a
|
|
"Certificazione di autenticita" which has been supplied in September 2009
|
|
confirming the numbers and the outside color Blu Caracalla 52141 Italver and
|
|
as well the interior color as Pelle Beige VM 3104 which the car still has today.
|
|
After having bought this 365 GTC/4 which has been delivered in its special
|
|
custom order paint Blu Caracalla with a contrasting beige interior we decided
|
|
to take it apart to go through the whole bodywork being needed after
|
|
nearly 40 years. Having spent some time in the bodyshop it went straight to our
|
|
paint shop to receive its wonderful Blu Caracalla paint. Needless to say that we
|
|
tried to do our best willing to have a perfect paint with gaps minimum as good
|
|
as the C4's came out of the factory. After having received its new paint Blu
|
|
Caracalla the surface has been grinded and polished to match a very high level
|
|
and quality of paint work. This work finished in November 2011.
|
|
After having done the work on the car we have to tell that this European
|
|
delivered C4 is in absolutely precise condition throughout. The paint job has
|
|
been carried out perfectly, the interior is in wonderful preserved condition, the
|
|
engine compartment has been detailed and it looks nearly like new, the engine
|
|
runs perfectly with lots of torque, the mechanical condition is as fine as it should
|
|
be. This C4 took lots of advantage of the latest work having been performed.
|
|
And last but not least we have to say that this very special color Blu Caracalla
|
|
with its contrasting full leather interior give the C4 a touch of elegance which we
|
|
really like.
