I just upgraded my photobucket account to pro so I could FTP pictures and get it a little more organized. So I'm going through them all and I found some interesting pictures of details past that I thought I'd share. I think there is still a four picture limit in the posts, so I'll do what I can with that limit.

(the customer wanted to know what could be done to save the paint. LOL)

(this is what tipped me off that the 'Apolo' I had been corresponding with was somone famous. He never told me his last name before this and I didn't instantly recognize him.)

(I thought it was pollen, but it turned out to be overspray that had to be clayed off)

(He swore that there was no body work on the truck and all the paint was original. Hmmmm.... )

Well, I've detailed some fancy cars too! A '91 Accord with stage 1 clear coat failure, and a 6 month old Corolla! Oh, and my 2 cars.
Well, one has to start somewhere!
Beautiful cars you're detailing. And beautiful detail work.
Some day, maybe I'll have a reputation like yours. It'll take me awhile though. Maybe 40 years. One car per weekend limit. :)

Nice House and Hanger.....

That door on the house looks bigger than my Dining room table.

It is an unbelievably huge door. The sucker is about four inches thick too. He said that when he had it built he told them that he wanted it big enough that once it started swinging that it would take your head off if you had it in the way. lol It is an amazing door that is probably worth more than my whole house. He does industrial real estate, so when he closes a deal it is usually a multi million dollar kind of thing.

I can believe that...... impressive. Very cool.... I imagine the hinges are industrial strength.
I keep thinking of Young Frankenstien when I see that house.... LOL
Nice Knockers....

I'll have to send that pic to my brother in who builds $$$ homes out West.
He'll appreciate that.

He's building a house for large online tire store vp and it's running in the millions. ( 6 car garage, elevator, indoor shooting range behind a vault door next to the bar, work out room,massive generator backup, outdoor shower, All the toys )

I think that VP has a Bently at the moment as his weekend car.
