We paid $300 to get our Ferrari 360s Convertible Top Pison rebuilt; we install it and find out the real disaster that lies within this hydraulic system…

I like your style 😎 . Do it right kinda guy!
I would take as far as Ebay
Really dig you working on these 360s I have one and I am taking your advice! 👍
I love your channel Sam!!! So, a thought about the convertible top… I'd be willing or happy, if this was my ride, to remove the convertible top completely!!! However, my idea would require a "removable hard-top"…Does anyone make a hard-top for this spider? Would be really cool!!!
Should’ve used tig. Easier to control heat and filler metal.
there are less points of failure in a hydraulic system
Personally I think it has way more potential than simply being parted out, that would be absolute sacrilege!
DOOO ITTTT
I would make it a manual top
Theses car are junk
Cars a simple money pit
Hi sam as a form gm and porsche tech the reason why you dont jump start modern cars is defo not a old wifes tale, we blew a ecu & bms (battery managment system on a part exchanged bmw 1 series and a c350cdi mercedes jumping them from the batteries & it's why most european cars have jump terminals in various places under the bonnet.
at best you blow a code or cheapish relay but at worst thousands wort of damage, best thing to do is remove batteries and leave them all on a smart charger or use the kill switches alot of exotic cars have some the factory and then a smart charger onto the battery (that what we did with all 80 cars we kept in stock at the dealership) hope this helps
Cars like this are built for fat guys with short diks
Over engineered Italian junk
What I like about this channel is that I've learned that this life isn't for me.
I talked about this channel with my uncle, who used to be an auto body shop owner. He said even with all his resources, sometimes dealing with a salvage car still ended up not being worth it.
Do you think you could integrate 3D printing into your car repairs? Maybe for small one-off parts?
A electric motor does not have the strength at high speeds to keep it canvas down is the only thing I can think of why they would use hydraulic system on the top
Why can't you disconnect all the hydraulic stuff and just open and close manually?
Absolutely shit design.
Every single one of those pistons should be an electric actuator. There is absolutely no reason for the roof to be hydraulically operated.
Good job!!
3 months on, what's happening? You got this sorted?
can't you get a removable hardtop for this?.
I tried to purchase 2 leather conditioners using SAMCRAC as the code and it was not valid. I canceled the order. I tried!
My family's 1950 Lincoln Continental had ultra-modern power windows. But they were HYDRAULICALLY actuated. Ford learned better. No surprise that Mercedes and Ferrari had not fifty years later.
