First Submission - Dream Panteras

this is awsome no question, but I drive my car too hard to ever keep it clean. I think Panteras should be driven and not shown. But I think this about any car. They are to be driven not babied. JMHO.

Now if someone wnats to volunteer to clean for me...

I love the look! And since Richard does "Drive" the car, the maintenance must be a chore! Richard, you gotta big pair of brass ones I can hear going "clang" clear up here in Portland!

Fantastic! First though please excuse my ignorance on this one but being Atlantically challenged how the hell do you even start preparing an engine to look like that?

Any pointers on appropriate web sites, specialist companies, products and general ‘how to’ would be most welcome if only to increase the knowledge.

As I’ve posted elsewhere I’m starting a restoration of a Deauville and although I couldn’t expect to have it looking like that she sure as hell needs some love and attention. Hopefully only cosmetically though

Holy Shit!

Thats outstanding!!!!

I need a second job....

Great Work..

Very nice ! IMHO one could only be so lucky, to own a car that looks that good under the bonnett! An engine bay that nice would be worth the hours spent making it "bling"

Hey Mark#6808, you missed a spot.

Only kidding, I couldn't resist!

Might have seen this in a other post, but I figure it belongs here.

Looks incredible Mark. You work fast and the results are stunning. Aren't you worried about getting overspray on all that gorgeous detail when you sray the exterior of the body?

Can't wait to see the completed photos. You're going to have one fine car there.

What a transformation!

Michael

Mark,
The exterior is already sprayed, the exterior has been color sanded, and is awaiting polish. It will have a fair amount of detailing though, polishing creates a hugh amount of compound and dust.
I can't wait to detail it
