Next on the lift · Winter 2026 / 2027 · Manhattan atelier
The 360, returned to the gate.
A Ferrari 360 stripped of its ageing electro-hydraulic actuators and converted in our Manhattan atelier to a true mechanical six-speed open gate, restoring the direct connection between hand, pedal and a flat-plane V8 built for 8,500 rpm.
The conversion
Factory silhouette. Mechanical precision.
Nothing changes on the outside. Inside, the F1 system comes out and a three-pedal, open-gate manual goes in, finished and documented to the standard of a factory three-pedal car.
I · The shift tower and linkage
Open gate, OEM pattern
OEM-pattern polished chrome six-speed open gate, precision rod and cable actuation, and a weighted brushed-metal shift knob installed into the original console.
II · Hydraulics and pedal box
Three pedals, fresh clutch
Three-pedal assembly, master cylinder, hydraulic clutch conversion, and a fresh flywheel and clutch specification.
III · Calibration and certification
Factory-clean electronics
Bosch Motronic ECU and TCU coding so the instrument cluster, ASR and starting logic behave exactly as a factory three-pedal car, recorded step by step in a leather-bound Restostradale build book.
The journey
Four stages, next on the lift.
Donor arrival and baseline
Compression, leak-down, belt service check and a pre-conversion road baseline.
Upcoming · Dec 2026F1 removal and three-pedal install
Stripping the F1 pump and actuators; fitting the pedal box, hydraulics and the open-gate tower.
NextECU calibration, dyno and shakedown
Factory-clean electronics integration and road verification.
