So My Dad bought a GT4 back in the 80s. Was off lease and not treated well. Repainted not quite the true color (kind of too much Orange) He drove it for a few years and I believe one year it may have had a starting problem, Floods easy, could have been anything. The summer moved on other projects came along. Now we are in 2005, my Dad in his 80s, It is time to get the ol' girl running. So not to repeat your same article as above I drove from PA to NJ almost every weekend for the summer and into the winter. I got to be the 12 yr old son, It was hoses and gaskets, home made pully holder to do the belts, KONI shocks off to be rebuilt, (spring story to be told here ... I didn't get hurt) Carb rebuilds, Ball joints. WELL YOU KNOW how it goes. So today my Dad is 99 and the Ferrari (Yeah, DINO) sits in my garage still kind of too orange still won't idle right too fast or too slow for no reason I can figure out. I keep the gaskets (and floor) well oiled and drive it to work every few weeks. Sometimes I just go up into the PA mountains and hope for no police along the roads through the valleys.
