Wow look at that...just published it this morning and already the article found its way over here! Thanks Joe. It's amazing how good an F40 can look after a 60 hour detail!
Always a pleasure to see the results of Todd's hard work. Plus the bonus of getting the background story about how he achieves such a high quality finish for the whole car! CH
Its amazing how cleaining a car draws such emotion out of people on the forums. It's all documented my new reality show on Bravo - The Detailers of NYC. Todd- This F40 was truly resussitated by you and your friend. Excellent work.
No question you are correct but that is the way Enzo Displayed it after it won the 24 Hours of Daytona. I think there's room for everyone to make themselves happy and it's good that there is. Personally I think the "Preservation" class at Pebble is interesting but I certainly realise that not everyone does. Will be a great week and a great chance to see a lot of Great cars!
If I'm not mistaken, they keep the tradition of basically taking the winner and moving it inside for display without any cleanup. I think that's awesome. And very nice work on the F40. To me, it would be like going for a 30 min drive, but having a 5 hour detail afterward.
That Tradition has fallen away. Today 10 minutes before the end of Le Mans the teams come in for a "Fresh" Nose so they'll look "Better" for the photo op. There are F 40's for sale to day that have spent less time being driven over 21 years than the 60 hours spent detailing this one. Everyone Makes Themselves Happy. All is Good.
Time passes and things change. I remember the first time Joe and I drove cross country in our Thomas Flyer... Image Unavailable, Please Login
Wow doesnt do Todd and Craig justice. These guys are unbelievable................!! Craig and Jack have serviced my Ferraris for years and all I can say is that they are true proffessionals. I met Todd early this year and we decided to give my Challenge Stradale a full detail. The results are fantastic..........attention to detail is second to none. If ever in doubt about the care of your exotic......you will be 100% comfortable with these guys. Keep up the good work Todd, Craig and Jack. Chas
+1 this has been my experience as well. The best. Couldn't have said it any better! We are lucky to have such great guys in our area! And I highly recommend them to anyone, near or not- doesn't matter.
I think that a detail like this is simply deferred maintenance and allows you to go back in time and start all over again!
