Авто/Мото
I think a Car Barn is a massive priority here - A chance to get all the cars indoors out of the weather first, and lined up, as it will make it far easier to assess the fleet.
I totally agree
@@Ratarossa seeing these cars sitting outside hurts my heart man!
@Illini Armory barns etc are often worse, they get damp and stay damp.. in the elements the sunshine bakes the moisture away every few days..
@@plumpii7177 I never said anything about a barn. Just needs to get them out of the elements safely and correctly
@@plumpii7177 He lives in the UK, there is no sunshine.
I agree with everyone else and would love to see you get a garage.
Dump the 456, way too many problems for what it’s worth.
Save the Porsche for sometime in the future.
Redo your CS and keep it.
Finish the BBi and sell it.
Rebuild the 308s and sell them.
Buy an F40!
Keep going, absolutely love your videos!
This makes good sense to me ... I think you are on the money here
@@Ratarossa yes and he forgot to mmention to...keep...the F40 lol
Spot on. A good plan. I grow up working in cars. If i could i will be Scott helper haha
Buying an F40, or restoring a slightly (or more ) broken F40? Pretty sure a restoration of an F40 would garner a gazillion trillion bazillion view and subscribers.
An f40 would be over $2m at this point
Keep ‘The Rat’, your daily 360, and the 911. The rest are ‘common’. It’s unbelievable to us ordinary peasants that you even have to consider such decisions. You are an extraordinary collector and your passion, time, and skill are your currency. Focus on the best of your collection, send the rest off to other aficionados. Cheers mate!
i concur...rat/360/911should stay
The condition of the cars is expected as they are 40+ years old and previous owners have allowed them to fall into disrepair. Most of us can only dream of owning a Ferrari and have to settle for a scale model of one. Great work and very enjoyable to watch.
I love the Ratarossa. I love the 456. I'd keep those, fix and sell the rest, and use the proceeds to fund a workshop. But we're behind you whatever you do. The Ratarossa restoration will break the internet !
I love the grey 308. The sleek coolness of an 80s synth-pop band 😎
100% keep the Porsche, really excited to see your plan for that one become reality 👍
You and me both!
I'd flip the 456 and the 308s. Keep the BBi, the 'Rossa, and the 360. Cheers ✌🏻🇺🇸
I truly love your collection of cars. I definitely agree with you looking for a garage for those cars. And you honestly need a very good mate of yours to help you restore those cars. I myself have done restorations and trying to do them all myself takes months if not a couple of years just on one. So yeah getting someone with you that's really cool with you and getting them going should definitely be a goal. Never really liked the 456. I'd let that go..
Thanks for sharing!!
The biggest drawcard for this channel would be to do a manual gearbox with gated shifter conversion for the black Stradale.
Samcrac in the States has done his 599GTB and it was a very popular series of episodes.
The only manual Challenge Stradale in the UK...now that's a crowd pleaser and oh how nice it would be to drive.
Electrical gremlins are everyone’s worst nightmare. However, Sarah ‘n Tuned loves doing electrical wiring work. You should collaborate on the 456!
Nice update! :)
The ones that should go, IMO, both of the 308s and 456. 360, well, yes, it does need a bit of TLC, but, I'm not sure if the full restoration is the way to go...Maybe tackle a few things (front bumper, a few pieces of the interior and engine servicing), but, maybe it should remain a daily driver. A few "scares" does look good on it. :)
Well Scott, I signed up when you had about 8000 subs, so I've been around for a while. Great to see an update. If you were asking me, I'd say the 308s, 456 and 911 gotta go. Years in the weather take their toll and then projects go on for so long, it's probably hard for you and everyone to keep track of them and whats going on with them. Project 911 cars can always be found. In the end it's a distraction from the core stuff you have been working on. Also, yep, time for a shop to centralize all your projects in one spot and get them out of the weather plus be able to do all your filming with ease.
Two main priorities are 1. premises and 2. get a million subs because then your ability to work on your cars becomes easier. I can't believe you are not yet over 200k subs. You content is outstanding, your entertainment is fantastic and your fleet is what we all dream about. So come on viewers get our Scotty up there!!
One of the best garage-tours ever. Looking forward to see the progress on these beauties!
Some tough decisions to be made here but I say - lose the grey 308 (as planned), the 456, and the 911T.
I agree but would like to see the 911T done. I’m not sure Scott will get around to it in time so your probably right it needs to go in order for it to be saved before it deteriorates any further.
Liking those plans, looking forward to seeing them evolve! 🙏🙏
Love the channel and the practical approach but a good practical garage is what the cars need and you deserve and can imagine would improve the relation with the neighborhood as well. Really hope you can get it done! And you can keep rescuing these wonderful cars.
Wonder if Schmee would be interested in hosting some of your cars in Barn 2 so they're out of the conditions. Great to see your nephew working on the cars too and taking in all the knowledge to refurbish things. It's a dying skill and one that will be worth BIG money within the next 20-30 years.
I would Sell Silver 308 as it doesn't need much doing to it, 456 as you daily your 360 and you have the Navara or other bigger vehicles for family outings (could always get another vehicle later down the line for a big road trip too, maybe an FF or a Lusso?), when the BBI is completed I would get the car PPF'd & drive for a little bit take to some shows and get content from it, then sell it on to a collector as it's going to be CONCOURSE!! (could sell it there too!)
Testarossa has to be restored, targa roof conversion or a folding roof installed; once it's done see what the waters are like and consider selling on. Between the BBI512 and the Rattarossa, it'd put you well on your way to an F40 or F50. Porsche, I would keep; you seem to regret selling previous ones you had so don't make that mistake twice! Maybe buy a couple of houses if you can afford it to rent out, if you don't do this already; will help shield you and your family from any financial issues long term.
Ive spoken to Tim before about this and he has kindly offered to do that
Great video, looking forward to all the surprises you have coming!
If you do decide to refurb the Ratarossa, I'd be seeing the guys that did Harry Metcalfe's Lancia Fulvia, those guys are incredible. Harry has his Testarossa in there currently for some work on panel alignment.
Glad to hear that your DD 360 is gonna get some love 👍👍
yer thats totally happening this year
22:06 - I think the orange lower part fits nicely with the golden wheels.
22:44 - Whoa, the lower dash looks like you are building a KITT replica from Knight Rider there!
Scott, you have incredible knowledge, remarkable skills and fantastic work ethic. I would pick the one308 I could get finished the soonest so you can cash out. To be able to fund an assistant or two to work my way through the rest of the fleet. as far as the Porsche is concerned, that car either needs a frame off media, blasting or possible dip just to reveal what’s ever hiding under all those multiple layers of paint. The other cars look more complete to do a real restoration. And I firmly believe you have a gold mine in the Tetarosa spider❤. But you really need to prioritize by roi first. And set early cash flow as a criteria.
Keep the Rattaworkbench and the BBI. And get a roof.
Tbh I’d struggle to pick on to sell but the silver 308 makes sense not point having duplicates. As for storage I know the struggle in the uk. Everything is either too far or eye watering for the average home mechanic. I lost my perfect space and still not recovered: keep up the hard work you will get there!
Back to back BBi, then Rat would be awesome... Break it up with all the smaller projects on the other cars, esp. to sell, would be nice for people interested in flipping. Of course a new shop purchase/lease and setting it up would be must-see as well. Looking forward to it all!
Quite a diverse collection of cars. That’s what I like about watching the videos is that it’s not always the same content. Would love to see that testarossa restored. I myself am currently working on a 1963 Pontiac Lemans. Nothing too exciting but definitely a pretty unique car.
Diverse ???Few Ferraris and Porsche
I've always loved the 308s...I'd keep them both since they look amazing and cheap 308s are a thing of the past. I'd part ways with the 360 or 456 and probably the 911 too since the rust is winning on it.
That looks like a LOT of work. I would love to hear very rough estimates of how long each will take in months. For me, the elapsed time of all those cars, the cost and the balance of doing them would drive me insane. Having deep pockets is critical. Good luck!
You forgot that red Ferrari F40 LM peaking from behind the left garage door 😉
Keep:
360 - excellent content reconditioning
Testarossa - hard to let go of the namesake
512 - gotta keep after all this work
456 - excellent content fixing all the issues and would be a good reference for future owners that have to fix these items. Then sell.
Sell:
Porsche - sell or part out. Face it, there's too much to do on this one. Let someone else have it so it gets restored sooner instead of continuing to deteriorate.
Both 308s - they're just not that exciting
Carefull the priority is your family...dont lose control... regards from Athens Greece...
I would keep the BBi, Testarossa, 911 and Challenge Stradale, but it’s going to be tough…and then nice!
Lifes short we all know you want an F40, and 100% get the testarossa refurbished that alone would blow this channel into another galaxy, sell the rest maybe keep the 360 or sell it and just buy a daily driver, but definitely never part with the testarossa, and BUY an F40. I see this year is going be an interesting year for your channel, notifications are on..make it happen, best of luck 👍
Really enjoyed this roundup 👏 can’t wait to see the 456 running 😜
I think that the BBI, Ratarossa and 360 stradalle are part of the channel... everything else would be cool to stay, but way less "important" than those 3. It would be awesome if you could keep one of each (minus the 456)...but i understand that money doesn't grow on trees ;)
Don't go crazy on the 'rossa. Just paint and jig panels. Keep it and continue to build the legend of the ratarossa. Like you say the parts worth more and more.
You have at least 10 years of content there!!! Silver lining and all that. FWIW, I would absolutely put $100k ($200k?) into the Ratarossa to make a collectable spider out of it and sell it for $800-1M. Even though it's the channel's namesake, I would absolutely sell it if it would bankroll the channel for another decade.
Yes a very very good point
100% agree
I enjoyed the tour and am looking forward to a step up in your capability!
My impression is that you keep finding really good deals, and that bleeds off the cash needed for buying parts to fix what you already have. You may have started as a guy who wanted to drive a Ferrari but you are sliding into being the guy who restores and sells Ferraris. This is all good, and you make fine videos. Cheers.
You should definitely keep both the Ratarossa and the 360 Scott.
1) Rebuild and sell the 308's. They dont really feature that much on the channel so cash in
2) Complete the 512bbi rebuild as and sell in the summer if possible
3) Fix as many issues with the 456gta. Then work out whether you really want to keep it. Personally I love Ferrari V12's 👍
That should at least free up a considerable ammount of cash and space for future projects 😁
If it were me ( which it’s definitely not) I’d keep the Porsche and the CS since that seems to get the most use of them all. Honestly I wouldn’t even mess with the CS rebuild, you seem to like as is, keeps the Rat theme and frees up funds and more importantly, time for other things.
Ditch the 308’s as soon as you can get them in good shape. Gives funds and reduces space needs.
Ditch the 456 you already seem like you’ve had enough of it already.
Spider the Rossa and sell it. Its not getting much of any use and maintaining it as a daily doesn’t seem possible with the parts and tires available. Plus, potential for big $ to put into other projects.
Finish the BBI and then sell it.
But, I am but a pleb with only a singular Porsche ;)
All the best!
That dark below the beltline is called "Boxer Trim" , because I think the original BB's came with that style paint job.
You already have everything you need Scott, just stretch the rear end of one of the 308's add all those panels you are collecting then fit the v12 out of the 456 into the beast.
Whatever you do to make money you must be good at it! Restoring those cars is huge money! Will be happy to watch as long as I can.
I hope keep the 456 Scott! I recently bought one , the same year as yours, and was hoping for more videos on that one.
Scott! Love the cars and have supported your channel since the early days - please sell one of the cars to buy a workshop or car barn at least. They are all - barring the ratarossa are all needing more work with each passing day in the harsh elements of British winter! Save the rats, sacrifice one and buy a garage/barn/workshop - asap! If you are in Surrey at all just leave them at mine - I have security - if only to protect them from the elements!
I would probably sell the 456 and black 308 asap as projects, concentrate time and money on the cars that will get most views and adds most value. If you can get the grey 308 finished and sold release the single garage space for the 911 until the workshop is ready.
Finish BBi and flip to fund the workshop, Ratarossa build and a manual 456 daily? CS could be worked on alongside the Ratarossa and what ever projects you have incoming! The 911 will make a nice retirement resto!!
Love the channel don't change the way you do things too much!
Yes, yes, yes, the Ratarosa deserves it! It served its purpose as a rat rod to start the channel and now it deserves to be done to the 9’s. It will only add to the story of the car.
Can't wait to see you restore the Testarossa!
Man I gotta tell you.. you're family really loves you.. you have cars on your mom's garage.. you have tires in your backyard, parts all over the place, you use the kitchen to clean stuff... you're wife really loves you! 😆
Scott it’s a no brainer with the Testatarossa, it’s needing the work done, for what the initial outlay would be compared to what the car would be worth is for me would be well worth it and on the black 308 quatrovalve I would leave the spoiler and paint it, its a period accessory on the car. Just my opinion
Great to see the Porsche again, excited to see you bring this one back to its former glory!
Personally I would say keep the Porsche, even though it needs a lot of work, would suck for it to become regret #3. Sell both 308s as they are a bit redundant with the BBi. Also would sell on the 456. While I know an auto is acceptable in a GT, for me it would kill a lot of the appeal. Just my .02, keep up the great work. Love the channel 👌
Love seeing the complete tour. I would say 456 and at least one 308 should go
On the black 308 check the fuel pressure accumulator next to the fuel pumps. I believe they use the same Bosch fuel injection as Mercedes used Back then. I had something similar in my MB 300CE, it run until the system warm up, then stop, had to wait until it cool down again. The accumulator has an diaphragm that fails and when it warms up cannot hold pressure. Hope it hepls.
Hey, get some reusable dehumidifiers: £9 each from Halfords. Stick a couple in the car and no interior wet surfaces!!
Personally, the Rat and the BB are like 3CP0 and R2D2…would REALLY like to see them to the max. And I personally would love a 456 daily driver, not worth as much as others but still a unique car to have around. EVERY other car could be handed of to someone else (as capable) IMHO, but it’s really hard to say, you’ll just have to go with your heart.
keep the 456 and the grey 308 after restoring in your garage, drive daily the 360 and take all the other cars to your new shop, restore ( inclouding the ratorossa), enjoy and then sell them to get room for new projects.
Gotta keep the 456 for sure, it’s the only family Ferrari.
I’d say sell one of the 308’s, and maybe to fund the F40 I’d say when it’s done and you had your fun with it, maybe sell the BBi. You’d have the nicest BBi on the planet in a rare color combo so it would easily be a very desirable collector car and I’m sure someone would pay world record prices for it.
As far as the Testarossa goes, that is a tricky one. It’s the reason your channel is called what it is and it was the car that introduced me to your channel. It also shows that someone can have a Ferrari that isn’t mint, and it is maybe cooler because it’s rougher. I know it’s worth a ton when finished but the real question is would you be able to replace it if you had sellers remorse and should it get refinished or leave it as is with just light restoration here and there 😊
Get the 512 done and sell it, followed by the Ratarossa. Before you do that look at consolidating the fleet a bit.
Great content on your channel. I have loved Ferrari's ever since my dad came back from a trip to Modena with a model of a Ferrari Boxer and Rene Arnoux's autograph. I was about 7yrs old and it was 1983. I have been hooked ever since. I agree with most of the comments here regarding a garage / workspace. It's painful to see such beautiful machinery rotting and degrading on your driveway. A proper car lift will be essential, You have a lot of work to do, so you will need all the mechanical assistance you can get! :-)
I'd love to see the CS coming back to life. I also can't wait to see the BBi come in to fruition.
BBi is top priority
@@Ratarossa can’t wait mate
Keep the Ratarossa and the Stradale IMO and fix up and sell the rest. And then eventually build up parts to restore the ratarossa, which could take a long time. I feel like you only really need one daily driver and one toy, but possibly you could rotate between toys as you find them
I don’t think I can offer an opinion on what to sell until you reveal what that is in the left garage! Could you even get the parts to make the Rat worth what it could be? If you’re stuck for an original TR leather tool case, with some tools and the tyre inflation still inside..I’ve one of those for sale 🙂
Love the cheeky thumbnail 😊
The black 308 is when I fell in love with the channel; I'd hate not to see it completed. Dump the challenge stradale, the Nissan, grey 308, and the 456. Gotta see the BBi and ratarossa to the end. Porche only if there is budget.
Would love to see the Rat undergo a full restoration and to a proper Spider conversion
Keep the Testarossa, the CS, and the BBI sell the rest of the bunch. Finance the F40 by selling signed models of your fleet and a nice kickstarter/Patreon campaign
Love the idea
I think you should sell the grey 308 and the 456 and keep the rest. The Ratarossa is going to suck in huge amounts of cash so finish the BBI then cash in that one too which will create your fund for the Rat. Whilst I’d love to see you have bigger premises, ordinary mortals like many of us really identify with having just a small garage to work in. Part of your magic is doing the impossible in small places!
The Testarossa Scott, it's the only game in town. Sell Everything - go FULL Pebble Beach on the 'Rossa, then take us through the sale at £1M+ & your sorted for life. X
off load the silver 308....and the Porsche, and the 456......tidy up the 360 and keep it as your daily driver, just fit that front bumper and fit the new steering wheel....I don't mind it looking a bit ragged here and there...I'm not so sure about going to town on that one , ......concentrate on the BBi.....and then have a look at turning the Testarossa into a 1 million pound car!!! those two projects alone will keep you busy for the next 18 months...with less cars sitting around you don't have to worry so much about having a bigger space to keep them undercover ...the 360 can live outside because you use it regularly, Testarossa and BBi in the double garage.....and the black 308 in that single garage for the moment but get that one up and running and repainted then sell that one too.
Love the 456, the Porsche and the Ratarossa. Sell the rest. Love the channel keep it up 👊🏻
I bought an immaculate 2005 575M with 4,800 miles in 2013. Drove it for 9 years, no major expenses and sold it last year. You make Ferrari ownership look very time consuming and expensive.
Glad your sorting a workshop and get them all out of the weather .
The car I want to see is the Rossa having a BBI treatment, and as mentioned the internet would meltdown 😂
Great Update...Thanks!! Sell - 308, BBI, 308GTS. Keep the Rest..👍
interesting ....BBi sell, well lets see what happens when its finished
Getting the Ratarossa's engine an drive train suspension in top form but leaving the body an paint as is what I'd do ..only because you have ten other cars that need to be fixed an sold . Kinda a tuff spot to be in you have so many cool cars but if you want even cooler Ferrari's then they gotta go .. hopefully you get the new shop ASAP .. man what a problem to have
If I may add, I would keep spoiler on black car, it is just cool! The rest: all welcome plans, hope you finish them soon
I reckon you should keep the classics (including the Ratarossa) so that when you restore them, they will be worth more then they were before and when you choose to sell them in the future you will make more money to bring your other dreams to reality. Other than that, great collection!
May not be a popular opinion but once the BBI is finished you should enjoy it for a short while then move it on. Its a lot of money to be tied up in a car that you will then be worried about taking out. Same for the Ratorossa. At the moment you can drive and enjoy it. If you restore it how much will you actually want to use it? Probably best to keep it as-is and enjoy it without too much worry, its not like it will loose any value. Use the freed up money to do up the other cars and buy the cars you have always wanted.
omg.......anything stored outside....get some decent waterproof covers........
they do work...using them for like 15 years...
everyone says they hold moisture underneath...they dont...windy day problem solved....
wish i had as many cars as you to cover up...
love what you do
N x
Honestly i think that, by selling a few cars, maybe the less valuable and getting a workshop (with the tooling and all you need to work on cars) you will change your game by a lot. I can believe you have all those raris and no proper space where you keep em.
With a workshop (like every other youtuber) you could start working on the other cars, maybe one or two at the time and drop content on a regular base. Making restoration series.
This will increase by a looooot your views and your followers on yt. I'd love to see you working on one car and complete it instead of seeing you buying ferraris and porsche and hearing list of things you'd like to do.
And of course, after closing the projects, you can sell those cars and have money to finance the other restorations. Once you are done with all of them you can end up not only getting a new project or two but also have the finances to keep your fav cars. By then you'll probably be a big one on the tube car game, cause i guess you have what it takes.
Watch the Car Wizard’s videos on his 308 to fix ur misfire. He bought Tavarish’s 308 from car trek and made it mechanically bulletproof and went through the ignition system. May help you out.
Keep the 456 and convert it into a manual. For family blasts, it will be a treat !!!
Keep the CS,Testarossa sell the rest and work your way into the F40, then you have what i assume would be your dream garage. Then go back to picking up fixer upers when its feasible.
16k to 1m dollar Testarossa restoration would be awesome :)
Another TR video coming soon
Scott, you are a legend. BBi has to be the priority. 360CS is a keeper. 456 nice to keep. GTSi has got to go. Does a 308 GT4 float your boat? When I win the lottery, I’ll bring my 288GTO round to you.
Given the driver for this channel has always been the work required to keep interesting cars on the road, I think you are going to be benefit most from keeping the 512, CS and Rat. The 308s, particularly the silver one are great cars but the 512 is much more special and has a similar look, although much, much more muscular. The 456 is just another Ferrari (I can't believe I typed that) and the 911, whilst interesting, is not in keeping with the theme.
I think you should keep the BBI, Testarossa and the black Challenge Stradale. Patch up the rest and kick them out the door. Maybe that old Porsche would do well with a full restoration to original, given how their values have increased of late.
Looks like a new unit slash workshop on the way well done and good luck
Love your channel, drive a Ferrari it's definitely one dream I need to make it come true in the future, keep pushing, regards from Germany 🍻
My dream car is the 308, you gotta keep one of those! Testa must keep… not a fan of family friendly cruiser…. But that’s just me, what do I know, I’m an American truck driver!
Great cars, but it hurts to see them stored basically the same way as the 512 was. I think you should reel in the horder, sell everything but the Ratarossa and fix one car at a time untill you have fixed the storage problem. What happens when the 512 BBI comes back? Surly you will not keep it outside? Thanks for brilliant content and always positive attitude👌
Great video - I have always loved a 308! I think they will become true classics
I agree. I think they are undervalued
@@Ratarossa I was born in 1978, and the 308 from the Magnum P.I. TV series that was on when I was a kid was the first supercar I remember seeing in my life. To this day, it has shaped my idea of how a sports car should look like. I really admire it as one of the best looking cars of all time. A timeless classic, just like the Porsche 911 or the Countach ❤
Nice one. Can't wait to see what you've got planed. Think if I had to probobly reluctantly sell the 911 and one of the 308s :( ahhh will not shore. Lol
Great fleet but if some have to go then I would sell the Porshe, the 456 and the black 308.
The 308 misfire is almost sure an issue with the made in hell BOSCH K-Jetronic injection system. There is a company here in the UK that repairs them. The K-Jetronic was the reason i converted my ex Golf MkI Gti to ITBs
As an almost OG follower of the channel: Please fix the driveway! Bigger, cleaner and better. A video of that will generate enough money for it.
My brain hurts seeing all the trees dripping leaves and moist windows.
Also, value is only when selling it: Im only hearing stuff to fix in the video. Just sell those cars that arent used. It will evolve the channel ❤️
Leave that porsche stock its more valueable and less work.. A full restauration will take a lot of time. I think you should make a bargain out of that one! Cheers from Germany
I like the idea
@@Ratarossa Looking forward to see you go after that f40 😎
