Sounds about right, my cars about 14ft 6" & has the same track & wheelbase as the 2001 Ferrari.
You say your bits will fit - how are you getting a 3 pedal box in a footwell that's as wide as a pair of feet?!!!





I no longer run Furore Products or Furore Cars Ltd, but would still highly recommend them for Acewell dashes, projector headlights, dominator headlights, indicators, mirrors etc, best prices in the UK! Take a look at http://www.furoreproducts.co.uk/ or find more parts on Ebay, user names furoreltd & furoreproducts, discounts available for LCB users.
Don't forget Stainless Steel Braided brake hoses, made to your exact requirements in any of around 16 colours. http://shop.ebay.co.uk/furoreproducts/m.html?_dmd=1&_ipg=50&_sop=12&_rdc=1

sorry not yet I need to tidy them up a bit and get some chassis issues sorted. Another week yet

I was just relieved it was all going to fit (you can see I was up till 1am ), I'm determined to make this a very close replica.
