ACDetailing and Auto Concierge: 1991 Ferrari F40

[d00t]

This was another collaboration between Bob from Auto Concierge, and myself. This is probably going to be one of the highlights of my young detailing career! It's a 1991 Ferrari F40. The owner just bought the car about a month ago, and he bought it with only 2600 miles on it!!! But this car was meant to DRIVE. So the owner didn't want a full on concourse detail with it, and why, you may ask? Why not go all out on a $500k car? Well because this bad boy's going to the track next week. That's right, the owner's going to do what it was MEANT to do... RACE!

When I first arrived in the morning:













Condition of the wheels:







Working in the WMF and PRC:



Finished!:






Looking decent, eh? Getting ready to crawl in to the engine bay:



Working the WMF on the lexan:







The master working the paint:







What the hell am I doing down there?



Getting every nook and cranny, that's right!







The whole body is made out of Carbon Kevlar! So sexy!!







Priming the pad with Concorso. I can not tell you what clearity, depth, and slickness the concorso gave the Ferrari. It just brought it to the next level for sure:

The sweetness all finished!











SWEET Interior. The interior is simply timeless. It may be out dated, but it's still simply amazing:






We couldn't pull it out of the shop, as it was awaiting clear bra (also why there's no real pics of the hood, because it was all messy from the clear bra). So just to prove no swirls!:




That's all guys! As always, C/C Welcome!

[MobileJay]

must be me since ive never seen it before but it was sorta weird and neat at the same time to see the rear end flip upwards the way it did.and i love the interior. as you said, outdated but timeless

[Phil@DetailersDomain]

nice work!

[d00t]

Thanks guys!

Sam, as far as the shop, it was getting a clear bra done right after the detail, so we detailed it at Premier Protective Films in Fremont at their shop.

[JoshVette]

Great work, you can really see the clearity and depth in those after shots.

Good job.

[Holden_C04]

The F40 has always been one of my favourite supercars. Great work!

What a beautiful machine, I love how simple the interior is. I have been looking into getting a flex and after this thread I think I will have to purchase one.
