I have the best clients in the world, and JerryR is one of the classiest guys you will ever meet. So for starters, thanks JerryR for letting me detail your "mechanical baby"! LOL

And sorry guys, for I am still trying to get this camera thing down. I am sure I could really show my hard work and correction's with some camera skills.

Thanks guys! A detail job like this takes a lot of time inorder to perfect a car. Every single part of this 335 was touched by my hands, and either protected or dressed. The total time spent on it was around 20hours.

NICE. Really nice. Who the heck could and would go to this level of detail (or heck even close) AND use top notch products down in So Cal.? OC or San Diego. I can't find anyone and sure would like to.

Holy shit! I need to get some proper car washing tools/supplies. That foam wand is definitely the way to fly.
