Italy here we come 2017 - road trip video - Ferrari 400

Oh boy! the IHWC 2017 roadtrip video has just been released. This gives me a huge smile which even a plastic surgeon can not remove. This will get me thru the winter. Enjoy:

Oil in Coolant - fix / repair - preventative maintenance.

I thought this was a very interesting item to highlight. Clearly a lot of tips and tricks can be found in FChat. I wish there was some kind of knowledge database or Wiki that keeps track of items like this:

https://www.ferrarichat.com/forum/threads/oil-in-coolant.376670/

In this case it's very nicely written up with supporting photo's and details about the parts and a homemade tool to take the item out.

Perhaps I should make a start now. Just like the compatibility items and parts resources this can come in quite handy. For now I will label blogs like this: "fixit" and will make it available on the sidebar.

In case you don't suffer this specific problem you still might want to consider it a fairly cheap preventative maintenance job.

Ferrari 365GT4 2+2 - 400 - 400i - 412 price valuation index 2017 - Onschatbare Klassieker Magazine

The new yearbook of the Dutch Onschatbare Klassieker Magazine came out. So I purchased it and looked up the valuation indexes for the Ferrari 400. See also my previous blogs about it.

For this year the prices are exactly the same as last year. So I guess all is steady. Still remarkable to see the 412 listed with the lowest price. On the current market I see them offered for a lot more though. I consider the price ratings more like an indicative marking.
