Scott ( @Ratarossa ) is a serious Ferrari fan and has taken to youtube to document bringing life back to some seriously unloved vehicles. Probably best known for his "Ratarossa". We have a chat about what got him into cars, some of the builds along the way and dig a bit into the guy behind the channel.
