It’s just heart warming that car had you to save it from extinction. The beauty of bringing a car back from the brink what gives us all joy. Like other programmes mr Brewer does, it’s just great to see a car rescued and back in use, the financial and logistical hurdles sometimes seem insignificant compared to the need to save another motoring soul. Your videos bring so much knowledge, joy and pleasure to so many of us petrol heads Iain. Thank you. 🙏🏼

Ian and I seem to have similar taste in type of cars. I don’t like modern Ferrari’s,but 360’s speak to me. I love this particular spec car. It looks great in that blue with the tan interior. One of the best looking spiders out there. I live in North Texas so a drop top most of our year is too hot. I can’t understand how someone would spend that kind of money on a Ferrari and just put it in a barn and leave it to rot. Gladly Ian saved it and it’s in the right hands now. Thank you Ian for showcasing this beautiful car.

From Los Angeles, California, great video. Enjoyed your blue shirt to go along with the Ferrari. What better person to restore a neglected barn find than you and your staff. Having to cut out the rear window to gain access to the car's interior is unreal along with the photo of a corrosion encrusted aluminum gauge panel. It's refreshing to see a restoration on a car that wasn't purchased at auction for millions of dollars. Take care and enjoy your new ride.

Given how much you and your team give to each and every car that goes back to an owner who places their faith in you, this video is perfect as we actually see you get something out of all your hard work.

As I have watched Tavarish working to resurrect his ocean-dunked P1, I've marveled at anyone who is willing to take on a car that's been left to the ravages of water. Especially one as dependant on extensive electronics. My last working career was as an aviation electronics tech for a company called Bristol Aerospace. Overhauling and upgrading a jet fighter's kilometers of wiring and instruments was quite an introduction into what water can do to wreak havoc. Including to aluminum. It's hard to picture someone abandoning a new Farrari in some humid garage for the past 20 years. That you had the patience to work through that little 360's soggy past is awe inspiring. It would have been marvelous to have seen it in progress! ... As for how well Freddy will succeed... Time will tell. I don't envy him troubleshooting the systems on that P1, especially since he has tried to keep the old wiring harness.
