Description

1990 Ferrari 348ts
The car runs like a champion, and pulls strong. You have to turn the key twice to start it because the flywheel is due to be regreased, so the sensors dont like it, but its not something that bothered me enough to pay a Ferrari shop to look at, so mechanically the car is fine. The oil and filter are fresh, less than 350 miles, the gear oil was done at the same time. I drained, flushed and replaced the coolant as well about 200 miles ago. The A/C blows cold. All spark plugs were replaced with NGK Iridiums. Both coolant temperature sensors are new. The throttle bodies, MAF sensors, Idle Air Control Valves were recently cleaned and also the throttle position sensors inspected. The cam belt shows no abnormal wear marks. Also the lettering on the belt looks to be fairly new. I also did both a compression and leak down test and all cylinders are between 192-195 psi. The car needs 2 lug nuts. With all this said, because it is a driven car, I recommend the major service to be done anyway, just so a mechanic can look at everything both externally and internally for peace of mind.
The previous owner did some modifications, One being an HID headlight conversion (both headlights function normally, just have HID bulbs instead of halogen), another mod being a catalytic converter delete. This also deletes the O2 sensors and exhaust thermocouples so there is a check engine light on both banks because of it. This may cause the engine to run rich, but I haven't noticed a problem with performance. The previous owner had the seat bottoms reupholstered, but not the backs, and there is some side bolster wear on the drivers seat, and the seat adjuster track sometimes gets stuck.
The front bumper has a large crack in it that came from unloading it after a tow, it will need to be replaced. The pictures do not show the damage to the front bumper because they were taken just before having it towed (It was towed because it was not registered, not because its not drive-able, because it is). Some areas of paint have slightly faded, but 90% of the paint will buff back to a great shine. Luckily it still has its original single stage paint, but the mirrors would look better with a respray as they are faded the most and are easy to remove, spray and reinstall. Since the bumpers need repair anyway, this would be a great time to spray the mirrors.
I have described every issue with the car to be upfront so there are no surprises.
The title is clear, there is no lien. Comes with one key.
