Quikie on a Bugatti

fergnation said:
The car goes 246MPH!! The owner said that the base price on the car 1.4 million. Here in Indy we don't have sun now so the pictures aren't as good as I would have liked. I pulled the car in and out of the garage a couple of times just to drive it as much as I could.



Kompressornsc- I just finished a Astin Martin Vanquish. Sweet ride! and also an Astin Martin AR1, only 99 made. His is #26. It does not have a top, can only be driven in the sun. The only pictures I have of it done are inside.



I suck at computers and am not very good with a camera. The next couple of days I will post some other cool cars. But I thought I would start with the coolest.

I believe it's electronically limited to 263mph. I could be wrong though. Also, I would suggest blocking out the license plates. Even though someone on the streets can get it. I would do it out of courtesy of your customer. Awesome collection of cars.:xyxthumbs

It was actually easy to find it w/o the license plate even. Not a whole lot of them running around Indy. :) And since the guy did a segment on the local news showing all his cars, I don't think he's super secretive about it. And there are a bunch of local forums with it posted as well. I didn't know who he was & just spent some time reading about his different 'enterprises'. Pretty interesting guy. All that said, I do agree about the plate.
 
The owner is a really nice guy. TV and mags are in and out a lot taking pictures. CNBC was actually over two weeks ago to do a two part story on him. The plate picture just got thrown in there by mistake. I figured out how to post pictures today and got carried away. The cars are amazing. I detail out of my garage for my company but do his cars over there. He has a wash bay attached and like the article explained it is quite the extensive collection. Infact it is 3:30 AM and I just got home. Juggling those cars as well as the other customers is a feat to say the least. Don't get me wrong, I work around the most beautiful cars in the world on a daily basis. Tonight I put about 10 hours in on a Bentely Flying Spur. Pictures to come in the next couple of days. Once i get done with the driver cars I will move on to the collector cars. Talking about beautiful, try a 1929 Duesenburg. The crome alone will take me about 20 hours.



I don't have my log book infront of me so I can't remember exactly what products I used on it. No power though, all by hand. But if my memory serves me well, I had to deal with quite a bit of swirls and nicks. Most of the sports cars went across country a few months back and before I came along the cars were not being washed properly.



I use a Makita normaly but have decided to order a UDM! I like the idea of a stress free detail on cars that go for over a million.



I will try to improve my picture taking ability so I can share the immense beauty of some of these cars. Sorry about the spelling, get three hours of sleep and then it's take the boy to school and get back to detailing.
 
you kinda messed up a code, so i fixed it for ya! awesome collection.

Saw this beauty in person last night. Kind of gives you chills just to stand beside it.

However, it was parked in a gravel parking lot. Me thinks Tim's got some s'plainin' to do to Fergnation. :)
 
Uhmmm... HOLY CRAP is all i have to say. That is awesome. I dont think i would llet anything other then my PC near that thing.



Amazing garage! I would do almost anythign for a garage like that!
 
Can't touch the tires! The only thing I can do to them is wash them. NO chemicals allowed. Kind of sucks when you are used to making tires shine. But Maker says no treatment so no treatment.



Owner decided to take it out last night. Give him credit though. He has a ton of cars and likes to drive them. Funny thing though, IT SNOWED LAST NIGHT!!!!! I do all of the washes and details so it keeps me real busy!!!



Before the owner left last night, he asked me to gas up the Porsche Kayman. NOt only that but I had to jump it, so he asked me to drive about for a bit to charge the battery. There are very few days that I am not extremely happy that I started a detail business!!
 
Beautiful collection of cars. From the pics you posted it seems that they need quite a bit of detailing (seals,tires, rims, wheel wells, carpet, leather, swirls, etc.). Those should keep you busy AND wealthy for some time!!!! Read up on all the tips and tricks and you will be detailing like a rockstar soon!!! Good luck and check back in with us soon!!
