Car Detail Bucket List

**JohnKleven** · 10-09-2012, 09:46 AM

What`s on your bucket list of cars you`re dying to detail?

**Garry Dean** · 10-09-2012, 10:46 AM

Veyron, GT40

**Paul Sparks** · 10-09-2012, 10:52 AM

Anything pre-1970. Single stage original paint :buffing: I`m easy to please.

I`m a little odd. Done most of my dream cars but......

This would be fun.

I`m pretty much like Paul, but I`d say anything pre-1980 in original or near-original condition. I love classics, and especially love saving the originality of them while maximizing their potential appearance.

OK John, gotta ask.... what is that, and why is it wearing Joseph`s Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat?

:chuckle:

Dude, you haven`t seen Ian Fleming`s other immortal character?

Definitely on my short list.

Oh, and congrats on the new Mazda 2.

I got one for a rental while on vacation (translation: hired one on holiday

) a while back, loved it.

It`s our fine four fendered friend.

Chitty Chitty Bang Bang. Just seems like an awesome challenge. If aluminum, wood, and paint were not enough just ad wings and propellers.

Yes It is on my for real bucket list.

Not my photo, But Im in love with these cars. I find them stunning. Someday. I guess

**RaskyR1** · 10-09-2012, 05:37 PM

I would say pretty much every muscle car out there but that is too broad of a list...one car I`ve always liked since I was just a young buck was the Ferrari 288 GTO. I built a 1/24 scale model of one in 1987 and have been in love with it ever since.

**JohnKleven** · 10-09-2012, 06:12 PM

1959 Ferrari 250TR would probably be the top dog for me.

I`d like to get your thoughts on this:

Probably the car that`s not on my by bucket list mostly due to how huge of a project it could be. :nervous2:

After doing so many high end cars, I feel you get numb to what you truly desire to work on. And quickly after you start working on them the trill goes away real fast. I don`t have a car per se that I`m super overly anxious to work on, but besides a Porsche 959 (John & Barry), I`d love to work on some vintage Italian cars. One person that comes to mind that has been blessed by the detail gods is Todd Helme for all the one off incredible and expensive vehicles he`s had a chance to restore. Don`t know how many people have had an opportunity to detail a $30 Million Ferrari 250 GTO??

no car on my bucket list to detail........ while detailing can be fun, more fun would be to be seated behind the wheel and driving it

There is a 250 GTO in Cinci. Held by a friend of mine. It is one of the only three with a big block 12. I have a 16x24 picture of it in my waiting room.

The Rolls is to much like an airplane for me

. Although I did consider working for the restoration department of The National Air Force Museum (imagine that)
