Continuiing from my initial post about my visit to Paul Russell & Co. These are just some shots of a few cars in various stages of restoration. Apparently, we're in Ferrari season right now. :)

This is a 1949 Ferrari 160 MM stripped down to the metal. When they're done with it, the car will probably look something like thisk, only with a hardtop: http://www.paulrussell.com/index.php?por_f_barchetta/story.htm

The rest of the car is just hanging around.

With everything exposed, we get to see the sloppy welds typical of vintage Ferraris.

Ferrari 250 GT Lusso. Simply stunning.

There are not many cars that are more sexy than a restored Ferrari.

Excellent pictures.
