General Info
Scuderia Rampante Inc is an Independent Ferrari Sales, Service and Restoration facility based in Boulder Colorado. This is a family owned business that has its only focus on providing the finest service available on all Ferrari's from Vintage to Current production. Dave Helms has been in the Automotive field for 34 years and specialized in the repair and restoration of Ferrari's for better than 29 years. Dave's career started in the early 70's servicing English sports cars. It soon became evident that attention to the smallest detail provided a finished product that many of his customers were looking for. Building, maintaining and driving race cars was a natural progression in Dave's career. With his racecar always running at the end of a session, he spent many weekends fixing and upgrading his fellow competitor's cars. The entry into the Ferrari arena came when a fellow racer required an engine rebuild on a 250 GT PF Coupe. It was that day many years ago that defined the direction and passion that Dave has had since then. Meeting a fellow racer and Ferrari collector, Dr. Robert Bodin, proved to be the beginning of a friendship and business relationship that has lasted for a great many years. Dr. Bodin's shop, World Ferrari, quickly grew from a facility that maintained his incredible collection and a few local Ferrari's to a world recognized service and restoration facility specializing in both daily drivers and rare, exotic racing Ferrari's. Sponsorship obtained from Coors Racing took the World Ferrari Racing Team "on the road", traveling from coast to coast and filling the field at various tracks with 3223GT (250 GTO), 0677GT (TdF), 1521GT (interim TdF), 2291GT and 3143GT (SWB's). Of course there had to be transport to and from the tracks so often a Daytona, California Spider, 275GTB/6c and the likes were used for this unique purpose. It is at this point that a heart felt thank you to Dr. Bodin must be given. It was his guidance and trust that truly defined Dave's life long love for the marque. Dr. Bodin's introductions to all time Ferrari technician greats such as Franois Sicard of NART fame, Rick Bunkfeldt, a true Ferrari genius, and Dan Jones, a Ferrari legend in the Midwest provided the invaluable, and all but lost, training on the vintage cars. A change of climate from the tundra of Minnesota brought Dave and his family to Colorado where he accepted the lead Ferrari technician position at Ferrari of Denver. Factory training at Ferrari North America and the factory in Italy was added to Dave's training portfolio over a number of years. With many years of keeping vintage Ferrari's alive and winning at the racetrack, Dave had the honor to be chosen as one of the event mechanics for the Colorado Grand. The event tested the mechanics by presenting the unique challenges of having to repair a broken Pre-1959 exotic car with only the tools and parts at hand on the back roads of the Colorado Rockies. After years of suggestions from customers the creation of Scuderia Rampante Inc became a reality in the winter of 2004. The family owned and operated Ferrari and Race Car service facility, is the culmination of a life long dream with Dave working along side of his wife Kris and son Bill.
