Mine.


Several 911's
Rover's
Benz
Bem'ers

I have a Ferrari Broker as a buddy and he is always asking me to "prep and make ready" the cars he gets for clients but I keep passing on them. May have to take him up on one....

That guy looks as big as the darn car! Hell, can he fit in that Leer behind him?

A couple of BMWs, several Lexus (or Lexi (plural), and a Sentra. The 1967 Vette with original paint was also a big feather... a Vulvo (you pick the word) or two... Here's one of them... not real impressive but, it's one of the few that I have digital pics of...




I've had a recent call from a Prowler owner... still working on making that one happen though. Honestly, it scares me because of all the metal polishing that will be necessary. I should have a late model Vette in the driveway for a full go-over real real soon.... maybe next weekend pending the weather holds.

I think Luke's F-150 will be here Sunday...

I've detailed several Corvettes for friends over the years, but I think the most impressive/nicest/fill-in-the-blank was a 1962 Porsche 356B coupe when I worked for a Porsche dealer. I had to go deliver it to the customer in rush hour traffic the next morning. It was kind of nerve racking for a 20 year old

Wow, I feel left out. The "nicest" car I've detailed was a 2002 Dodge Stratus...it was mine until I got my truck (which I haven't had the chance to detail yet).

Mostly a wash&wax. Little bit of Pro Polish in trouble areas and EX-P before the LSP.

I've got a very unique one a 1959 Fiat AutoBianchina that was fully restored, and a 1976 Triumph TR6 that was all original and had 12000 miles, just sold for $30,000+, but here is the Fiat, a whopping 16.5hp

Oh yea, I'm 6'4, I had to roll the top back just to drive, Its a 4 speed manual, and Inline 2 cyl. I hauled it around on a 12 ft ATV trailer, it had enough room to put a ATV on it as well. The car is neat, but oh so slow. It will run about 55mph down hill, and will barely climb anything. The lady's husband had it fully restored and died before it was done, I picked it up after 6 years of sitting. It was a chore to work on and find parts.
