Another amazing transformation by PB.

Alpina is a route i'll be looking to take sometime in the future. They're just a bit special imo.

I'd agree, but in fact it looked much worse in those photos than it was.  I'm sure Clark added those leaves for good measure

The real indication of condition shows in how little was picked up by the claying process.  However I was very impressed with the job he did on the wheels.  Until then I was resigned to a refurb!

Read the whole thread - unbelievable work - awesome - I really did not realise just how much detail/work went into detailing a car - down to measuring the depth of paint - and the end result - fantastic
