Well, I will do a short little thread about a car I recently worked on...too bad its a replica!



This is for an unsuspecting owner (hopefully he is not on here LOL). I talked with a shop I will now be doing the detail work for and we decided it would be good to "hook up" this car with a proper detail. Lets just say, when I walked into the shop, I was thinking it was brown! I couldnt have been more wrong! The owner didnt have a car cover for it so it sits just like the rest of the cars without one! The owner of the shop washes and cleans the car, (read as will have me "detail" them( before getting the final inspection pass. Quality stuff coming from this shop!



Ill let the pics do the talking in this one...



105/pfw/1200

105/orange/spd 6

203/white/spd 6

85rd/black/spd 6

DWG/blue/spd 6

BFWD/blue/spd 5



still have to go back the day before the pick up for the wheels, tires, interior, windows! so keep in mind, those arent done...ran out of time (shop closed) and no sense in doing it twice! at that time, Ill get some paint correction shots!

thats it for now...this is a teaser thread as far as afters go....:bigups
 
Big improvement! :)



It may be a replica (as was the 550 Spyder I did a while back) but they are still beautiful cars. :)
 
next on the list for that car is to polish up the wheels, clean/condition the leather straps, shine up the chrome, clean the window, polish up the jambs, and wax it with wolfgang fuzion!
