Just had the pleasure of meeting Jim at O.D.D. Parts in beautiful Sonoma, California where I took my broken Ferrari Part #64978300 potentiometer that controls the safe operation of the convertible top on my Ferrari 355 Spider. I don't remember who told me about O.D.D. Parts and that they could repair this part but after a five year nightmare unsuccessfully battling with Ferrari to source the part for myself and other unfortunate 355 Spider owners, I needed outside help. While I could have shipped the part to him, I decided to personally visit O.D.D. Parts as I only live an hour and a half away. Any excuse to visit beautiful Sonoma County. Let me be clear, this part is integral to the safe operation of Ferrari 355 convertible tops and is not available anywhere on this planet. Jim had assured me on the phone that he had developed a "fix" for this part and had done many of them already. When I got to his operation, it literally is an artists' enclave and after seeing his work on impossible to find parts, it was clear he was an artist as well. He repaired my part right in front of me, gave us a little tour of his shop and his work, introduced us to his protege Matt who will be the next generation of fabricators and then took us on a golf cart tour of the property. A trek to get a part fixed became a delightful adventure. Jim fabricates parts for multi-million dollar show cars but what he charged me to repair my part was absolutely a bargain, especially when considering, to my knowledge, these parts don't exist anywhere on this planet. I just finished installing my repaired Ferrari potentiometer part #64978300 in my car and everything works perfectly. My five year nightmare is over thanks to Jim at O.D.D. Parts. While you may not be as fortunate as I to live in Northern California and visit Jim personally, check his website out or give him a call if you have a problem with a rare or obsolete part. Be sure to check his operation out. I am so glad I did. read more
