For 20 years, I excelled as a Master Technician for Ferrari and BMW, earning the title of "Best Ferrari Technician in the World" in 2019. I will bring the same passion to the channel. Dive into my meticulous, in-depth projects, from complete restorations of classics like the BMW E28 M5, my son's '72 Chevelle Malibu, and our '79 Centurion jet boat. You'll see performance engine building, fabrication, rust repair, complex diagnostics, even bodywork and painting. I also plan to delve into the unique service needs of my favorite Ferrari’s, sharing interesting technical details along the way.
Join me, Roman, and Charles, the resident shop dogs, as I document and share my expertise, enthusiasm, and OCD on every project I undertake.

CUSTOM Exhaust, Mounts, Plumbing, and Rigging on my JET BOAT
I am reveling in this phase of the restoration and rebuild of my '79 Centurion more than any other. With the big block Chevy now powering this jet boat, I’ve plunged into the task of rigging it up. This is where I truly get to unleash my creative freedom-or perhaps it’s my OCD, or even my anal retentiveness? Who can say? The problem-solving aspect of these fitment challenges is something I genuinely enjoy. I’m a function-first kind of guy, but that doesn’t mean I’ll sacrifice appearance. I’m always willing to go the extra mile (and then some) to ensure everything is both functional and top-notch. That should be no secret by now... lol.

BARN find CHEVELLE Rochester 2jet Carburetor Rebuild
Просмотров 53314 дней назад
The revival of our barn find 1972 Chevelle continues. Abandoned and exposed to the elements since 1999, this Chevelle is now running and driving once again. Now that we have successfully revived the car, our next task is to rebuild the sub-systems to ensure long-term reliability. While barn finds are cool, we don't want this car to remain in that condition forever. The goal is to make this Chev...
Replacing a SMASHED rocker panel on the E28 M5
Просмотров 15121 день назад
Uncovering hidden, poorly repaired damage is a common part of restoring an old car, and this M5 is no exception. Even though this E28 had nearly 200,000 miles on it, it was still in very good condition. However, I noticed that the fender seam for the right-hand (RH) rocker panel was missing along the lower edge. After some quick investigation, I discovered that the rocker panel had suffered an ...
Comparing S62 Dinan ITB's vs OEM ITB's on a E39 M5
Просмотров 483Месяц назад
Recently, I was working on my E39 M5, which required removing the top section of the intake plenum. With the top section off, the velocity stacks for the ITBs are fully exposed..... I'm fortunate that my car has the relatively rare Dinan bored-out ITBs and hand-made velocity stacks. Additionally, I still have the OEM stacks and ITBs. It's uncommon to have both sets on hand since Dinan required ...

I've been making outstanding progress on the restoration of my 1979 Centurion Jet Boat over the past few weeks. I recently completed an extensive custom gel-coated bilge, and I successfully epoxied the jet drive suction intake into the hull. Additionally, the rail kit installation is finished, using my mockup engine. With these tasks out of the way, I'm ready to move on to the full mockup phase...

Restoring the E39 M5 CARAMEL leather with LEATHERIQUE
Просмотров 8332 месяца назад
My 2001 BMW M5 remains in excellent condition for a car that is well over 20 years old. However, time and infrequent use are starting to take their toll on the leather interior. Since my E39 is equipped with the optional Extended Leather package I have a lot of it! Although the visual condition of the leather in my M5 is still above average, with little cracking and fading, the issue that I am ...
