AND WHAT ABOUT THE INSURANCE?
In a week with not much activity on purchasing parts management, Jack was devoted to research on car insurance to value how much could cost a conventional insurance. Among 7 insurance companies 5 didn’t secured the car, the other two offered a price of about € 900 to a third party theft and fire covered getting a locking device installed, the price seemed reasonable. It's a pity that in Spain there is not the possibility to ensure the car just for use, that is, pay only when the car is on the road and not when it is in the garage.
THE PERSEVERANCE
Jack after visiting numerous sites where car parts were sold he found on a U.S. site the bottom left door panel, he focused on it but the price was such high that almost deserved to buy it in the Ferrari dealer. Below I leave these websites.
Mirrors were some of the pieces Jack needed but there were not anywhere, the only ones that appeared were always very damaged.

YES NOW, YES NOW, TIRIRI, TORORO, TURURU, TURRUNRRUN, BRUUUUUUNNNN,
Over February 2008 and after a thorough study, to prove ownership of the Ferrari and with the help of skilled professionals Jack was able to reconstruct the anti-theft system. Jack says that the first words of his daughters were "hello" and "mama" and ones of his adopted son "bbbbbbbbbbbbrrrrrruuuuuuuuuunnnn." Jack admits that when Ferrari began to speak he was relieved, here I show the video of the start up ... ... ..
Jack, despite the logistical difficulties still tried to manage the purchase of spare parts in the USA, sent many mails to many pages but until late February still had nothing materialized

MORE PARTS.
Finally in the third week of January Jack ended some efforts being undertaken to buy the bumpers, thanks to Internet he found in Jerez de la Frontera a person who sold the bumpers of the F355 Challenge, his first intention was to rent a van and take to the 1.100Km road trip but thanks to an acquaintance of a transport company and the willingness of the seller to make a good pack decided not to go. Enrique from Jerez made a sleek package with two bumpers in a single package with bubble wrap very protected and Manuel by Seur was provided with the logistics in an altruistic way and this is not a joke because even though bumpers are fiber and the total weight was less than 30 kg the problem was that the dimensions of the package (2000x900x500mm) made the transport rates were about 300 €. Underneath you can see the unpackaging.
On the other hand Mito and Ledo, friends of Jack, gave the address (which they were given) of a company website, although it did not have the parts needed, it does have a very interesting documentation. The full service manual car, he rushed to buy it because it was the best way to rebuild the car accurately, they could also have drawings to indicate the parts he need to buy to the sellers.

WHAT A RIP-OFF !!
Jack got informed in two concessionaires on how could he enable the antitheft system and both said he should install a whole new anti-theft system, also for obvious reasons of security should bring the car to a dealer to manage from there to solicit Ferrari Italy of a new system. Although Jack was very "fucked" understood that this procedure is quite logical because we were talking about the security of a unique vehicle.
Eventually the new anti-theft system was coming out € 2000 excluding VAT and installation (3600 € all included), this news turned out to be a championship blow to the morale of Jack and so he went blank that week, he did nothing. But after seeing Ferrari’s dealer showcase and imagine his going down the street he recovered and returned to the workshop next week. VISUALIZING IS THE SECRET OF MY MOTIVATION

SANTA IS COMING!!!
At the end of December 2007 Jack started the paperwork that would legalize the circulation of Spanish-registered car and its new and excited owner. Obviously this was not free and must pay to the Spanish state administration about 1200€.
In early January 2008 Jack received his particular gift from Santa Claus, it was his first adquisition but not the most important, because they were not very necessary to begin repairing the plate, he bought the four rear lights at a price of 80 € each . But Jack was still looking for bumpers because they were quite necessary to begin repairing the plate. Jack had so many Internet addresses needed to organize. The trouble is that they were all U.S. and hardly respond him, what did, had exorbitant prices because he must add a lot of taxes.
For example if the spoiler of the door with a small bump that needs to be repaired costs € 1000 in USA, then we must add the transport (€ 300), then you should pay VAT (16% of 1300 = 208 €) after fees are paid (4% of 1508 = 60 €) and finally the repairing here about 70 €, so € 1000 piece in USA comes here for 1000 +300 +208 +60 +70 = € 1,638 which is more expensive than the price at the dealership.

RIP!!! RIP!!!
In the third week of December Jack proposed to himself listening to the 380cv of his car. He bought a battery which is located in front of the front right wheel, because of the crash it was lost with its supports (characteristics: 12V 70Ah 420A). On the other hand the left silent exits were very flattened, Jack thought that would not prevent the gases come out even if they would, he thought of carrying the car outdoor and listening to free escape.
Afterwards he filled in 5 liters of gasoline and checked the coolant level that was ok, but, WARNING!, when he checked oil level he found no sign of it. Jack filled it up, he supposed that a liter would be enough to mark the indicator, so he bought the same brand used in last review, done in july 2007 (Castrol Edge 10W/60 synthetic, 118 € /4 liters can). He poured a liter, but no stain was there, so he threw 2 and 3… and 7 liters were necessary to stain the creek between MIN and MAX. He got very nervious and began to think that the whole engine was empty of oil and so spoilt. The capacity of oil must be of 9,5 liters, if Jack used 7 liters the engine just had 2,5. He removed the floor effect plates to see if there were any leaking, but they were very clean, just dusty.
Conclusion, it was burning oil, what implyied the engine was very very worn. Last check-up was in july 2007, oil changed and afterwards it was just driven 1,5 months, then crashed and arrived to me just with 2,5 liters, burning the remaining 7 in 1,5 months.
He didn’t try to start it and went back home thinking about the repairing cost. He sent a message to the seller but he didn’t answer. He was scared for the bad deal he had bought.
Two days later he went back to the workshop with José Manuel, a rally driver, they began to read carefully the manual on lubrication chapter, when they got to the paragraph “oil level review” it was in bold written: “Implement the engine for several minutes until the oil temperature passes 70ºC, then stop the engine and immediately check the level with the creek”.
That’s right! Says José Manuel, oil in these cars are never seen in cold, you must see it after started, because it has no housing- Jack reads again the manual and in Generality said: “ Lubrication is dry sump with gears and pumps type”.
Then Jack told me - "who does not know is like who can not see”, the oil level was fine and I should never have cold fill because the oil is decanted into the bottom of the engine until the pumps are submerged"
This week Jack and I learned that the dry sump (without covers) only used in race cars as their main advantages are that you can place the engine lower, lowering the center of gravity, and on the other side having no oil in storage at the bottom, crank doesn’t break or produce foam when it hits the oil that is in the container, allowing greater engine revs. The inconvenience is that you should check very often the oil level as a loss leaves the engine empty of oil immediately.
Then Jack got all the oil out (about 16 liters) and filled it with 8.5 liters because the filter should have one liter as it is a special filter system of anti-drain.
With the levels ok, Jack hit the battery, put the key, turned to point "II" are lit dashboard controls, sounded relays and fuel pumps, turned to "O" and again position "II" to prime the fuel system. Now turned to the starting position and the horses did not awaken. Jack was again reading the manual and came to the chapter of the anti-theft system which said briefly: - the alarm is unlocked with the remote control and starts with the key, "but Jack had just been given two keys and by the book he should have 3 controls and 2 keys. Read more carefully and said that in case of emergency the anti-theft system could unlock a "PIN CODE" and keys.
Jack could not start the car and went home thinking how.

DISMANTLING BEGINS.
In the first week of December Jack began to disassemble the car, first drew the bumpers to see how the anchors were and compare them with the bumpers that were sold on Internet. Both the front bumper and the rear are important pieces for the plater start to work, because of the good parts get references to repair areas adjacent sheet.
I upload some photos of the pieces of the bumpers and other photos of the appearance that the car has now.

MAKE IT HAPPEN
On 9th/11/2007 thank Jose Fernando, a coworker, Jack found on Ebay an owner manual and a repair DVD, he bought it quickly, it was in 4 languages, English, German, Italian, French. It was received in mid-November.
I tried to find the exact place on Ebay where he bought it, but it is currently disabled, that’s why in the next picture appears elsewhere on the Internet where you can get the complete manual.

I PUSHED A FERRARI.
With the car at the workshop door was inevitable that all people passing in front to got astonish with the picture, then among all helped put him in and uploading it to the elevator, the following photos are right there ..
Jack estimated repair about 2 years because the panel beater and painter would use their leisure time to work on it, Jack dismounted at the beginning and end also ride in their spare time.
The car remained there without anyone touching it for a month because at this time It was a classic test round the area which meant extra work for the workshop. Meanwhile Jack kept on looking for replacement parts and information of car: repair manuals, owner manuals or anything that could help him.

THE ANGUISH.
The truckdriver loaded the car in Germany on the ninth October 2007, but as there were several holidays during that week, Jack couldn’t touch his Ferrari till 16th October. What an anguish! The car was paid at the beginning of that month and he couldn’t be close to it till the middle of the month. The day they unloaded the car at the garage I was there and I saw Jack watching at it, he was so touched! And with a trembling voice he told me: -“It’s beautiful, even crashed”. When Jack calmed down he began to analyse the car and said: -“the sheet hits are less impressive than it seemed on internet photos, but the damaged fiber parts must be changed and I have to begin looking for them right now!”. Later, when the car was up with the elevator he also could see a hit on the left front plate.
This was the first listing of pieces that Jack found necessary to buy because they were unrecoverable.
Buy back window.
Repair 3 tapas of ground effect.
Buy full front bumper.
Buy full rear bumper.
Buy complete left mirror.
Buy complete right mirror.
Buy all four rear lights.
Buy the spoiler under left door.
Buy the spoiler of the left door.
Repair the dual exhaust.
Buy platelet lower left front suspension.
Buy battery holder.
Repair scratches on the tires.
Repair all exterior metal parts.
Paint the whole car.
On the other hand Jack looked all around the car for the original documentation but it did not appear, this initially caused him considerable uncertainess because the documentation usually always come with the car, then he phoned Manuel and he answered Jack that the seller gave the documentation to him to revise and it also gave him the original car key. In the end, as everything was OK 2/11/2007 Manuel sent Jack the original documentation together with the main key. Here are some pictures of the documentation.

THE GREAT DECISION.
Jack called me again and with all the information gathered it was time to make the decision. I told him that he did at the time or never would. Jack lively adventure was launched and the first transference made 21/09/2007 to book the car, while Manuel from Germany completed the documentation of the car to avoid bureaucratic problems later. When Manuel saw that everything was ok he told Jack to do the final transference on 3/10/2007.
Now I upload three videos I think you'll enjoy, the first takes about 8 minutes, the second takes 4 minutes and explains perfectly the craziness of my friend, the third is the "Ferrari 355 tribute".

WORKING WITHOUT PREASSURE
After Manuel's ok Jack spoke with Jose M. to see where he could keep the car to take it apart and fix it, he recommended him a workshop of his choice where they were used to repair machinery of that caliber. I've been to this shop several times and have seen several 911 turbo, MG, even a Ferrari 328 and a Lancia Stratos! The shop owner called John is specialized in restoring Minis, he owns 6 and even Portuguese people go there to rebuild their cars. Jack decided to take the F355 there because they had a place to fix it with complete peace of mind and because John knew the best panel beater and the area.
The truth is that in this workshop you breathe a predisposed genetic mechanicians to repair all types of cars.
Obviously the car repaired at any shop outside Official Ferrari it devalues the subsequent resale or for the pure collector, but without any doubt ENZO FERRARI will approve the project because Jack was moved by the pure pleasure of driving a true sports car, chosing the effectiveness chrono rather than any component of luxury and exclusivity.
While Jack managed the place of repair Manuel from Germany talked to the dealer who was keeping the car maintenance and managed to fax the last review of the car made in the Official Ferrari workshop in Munich. Here you are the pictures of that report. Although it is in German it can be summarized in a complete review of the air conditioning, brakes, engine, suspension, gearbox, anti-rust product application advocated by Ferrari, change all fluids, etc ...
Manuel also verified that the car documentation was legal.

THE FIRST CONTACT.
Seeing that it was good looking car, Jack decided to search how much could cost..., for example, a front mudguard and the front bumper of such car, for this purporse he called a dealer and was told that the mudguard cost about 650 € and 1.750 € the bumper without painting, but the problem is that they did not sell to independent repairers for repairing the car out of the concession, but should bring the car to the dealership and repair it there with consequent bleeding money, so he had to look for other solutions.
Jack was increasingly infatuated with the car and he didn't care about the difficulties. He contacted the seller through a message, helped by Pascual who translated it into german.
With his dream chosen and even with the price closed, Jack thought that this particular car should be seen, it would be better go to Germany, and he would do so if he hadn't been lucky enough to have friends who have, many friends also passionate about cars, here I will appoint Jose M. which encouraged him greatly to bring the car, he said that if anything went wrong he could always sell and not lose all the money invested. Well, Jose M. suggested not to go to Germany because he knew a Spanish man who lived there and he was retired, this gentleman was engaged in importing cars to Spain from the area north-west Germany, he was called Manuel.
MANUEL was the key for Jack to buy the car, he traveled 600km and 600km round trip to go and see the car, talk to the seller and review the documentation of both the car and owner, official revisions etc ..., this man was even able to renegotiate the price and download another 1000 €.
From this time on Jack couldn't get rid of his mind the image of the car, once repaired with the appearance that he had always liked. Below these lines I will show you some pictures of how he would like to restore the car. He would like to change the F355 Berlinetta into a F355 Challenge, it is a classical transformation from "Gentleman driver" in which the car could travel on the street or could compete in a circuit.

JACK´S INSANITY.
Good morning, my name is Yago C. I'm 33 years old, I'm single and I am very fond of cars. I've decided to start this blog to show that dreams can come true. A friend of mine wanted to own a Ferrari and with hard work and patience he's got it. This blog will be updated weekly to show you how he has managed and I will even try to transmite his feelings. Car lovers will see that even if they have a limited budget it can be achieved, we ¡ust need the will and clear objectives.
It's true that the car has lost the Ferrari pedigree but it has gained SOUL in return, because his restorer has given part of his life in its resuscitation. My friend likes to be called Jack, he always liked the Ferrari F355, despite the new models which came out, 360 Modena, F430, the retractable headlights aesthetic and rear uprights with horizontal engine hood design seem to him genuinely Pininfarina for Ferrari.
Jack finished Mechanical Engineering studies in 1996 and once he got a job with a certain stability, he seriously proposed to himself to make his dream come true. Many of us told Jack that his craziness would pass away. I, myself, even told him that for his purpose a much wealthy situation was needed and a person with his responsibilities, a family depending on ¡ust his wage, could not achieve such dreams. He got so angry that he didn't talk to me till he was about to take the first real step to own his F355.
Jack always searched on Internet sites for price of second hand F355, but they really could not be reached, then he re-drawed his dream and decided to look for a damaged one and restore it himself. His intention was to buy a car beaten but with the gearbox and engine in perfect condition to repair only the aesthetics. He always liked to fix everything that came into his hands, he is a real handyman.
Internet was the place where Jack had been looking for 2 years a damaged F355 and was in September 2007 when he saw one in www.mobile.de that got all the requirements, Ferrari F355, Berlinetta, red, with few! Km with a blow that could be restored, engine ok, ok gearbox, his dream was to a single click on the computer.
His mind and his heart came into conflict and then he called me to ask for advice, I freaked, I thought it was a joke, he showed me the advertisement on Internet, I am still amazed by the courage he had.
Hereunder I show some photos of how the car was advertised on the Internet. Jack said that the car may have had an accident on a country road, with several drifts and repetitive blows to the four corners of the car, so, though ¡ust the right door was ok, all the other hits were not very important, they could be repaired by a good panel beater, he said that obviously on Internet you can always have surprises you can not see, so it is necessary to assume a repair budget 15% higher for any contingency, however the car did not seem to have a strong impact, he was highly convinced the chassis was intact.
