In the latest episode from Houston Crosta, the team faces a nail-biting challenge with a pesky oil leak in their beloved car on Ribble Drive. Bugatti's reluctance to sell a crucial crank seal separately leads to a daring negotiation, resulting in a bargain deal of $30 with a catch - the dealership must handle the installation. The arduous process of splitting the car in half to fix the leak costs more than half of what some supercars are worth, a jaw-dropping revelation that adds to the high-stakes drama of the restoration.
After months of meticulous work and perseverance, a custom-made crank sleeve becomes the hero of the day, fitting snugly over the damaged crank to seal the deal - literally. The team's dedication pays off as the new seal is flawlessly installed, putting an end to the troublesome leak and providing a smooth surface for the flywheel. With this hurdle conquered, the car is one step closer to its glorious resurrection, marking a pivotal moment in its journey back to glory.
With the leak saga behind them, the car embarks on a new chapter at E3 upholstery in Florida, where a stunning interior transformation takes place. Inspired by the iconic CCX design, the new interior boasts purple Alcantara, hand-painted accents, and a unique subwoofer that adds a touch of luxury and individuality to the vehicle. As the car undergoes its final touches, the focus shifts towards enhancing its power and performance, gearing up for a thrilling tuning session on the dyno to unleash its maximum potential.
