"REBIRTH OF AN ALFA ROMEO"
​
"...When the body was ready, the GTV went back to Filippo's shop, and they removed the suspension, completely upgrading it with modern bushings, and lowered the car about an inch below European spec. All the running gear and rear-end metal was powder coated, as were the signature Alfa Cromodora Turbina wheels.
Filippo also tore the engine down for a performance rebuild, with new bottom end bearings and balancing. For the top end, they machined the head, installed larger valves and polished the ports."

"1967 FERRARI 330 GTC"
​
"...Mechanically, the engine was outsourced to Gran Turismo, also of Los Angeles, for a complete rebuild. Since the engine work was completed, only approximately 300 miles have accrued for testing purposes. During restoration, the transmission synchros were replaced as needed, and the suspension, brakes, and undercarriage were all properly rebuilt and refinished to FCA standards."
