Man it's kind of amazing how some ***** let a nice car this nice get to ths point. Oh I'm sorry they are just too busy to take it in to get it washed/detailed. Nice detail BTW.

I've seen a lot of detailing work on all marques of cars in my five decades of detailing, and I can honestly state that Bella Macchina (Todd & Brian) are the best detailer's I've come across

HO LEE SHEET!!!!!!!!!! I am routinely amazed at the work some of the artists do with regard to detailing on this site. Anthony, Phil, Mo, etc all have shown us incredible work time and again. This might be honestly the most remarkable one I have ever seen, and that is not a slight in any way to the wonderful art others have displayed. It is more a testament of something that quite simply exceeded all expectation I have ever had from a before and after of a detail of this magnitude. WHOW! Hell I don't even like the Galladro, but this thing kinda had me wishing I had one by the end of it. I am not kidding. thank you for sharing, and kudos to all those detail artists out there.

If you do not mind telling us all how much would a detail of this sort cost? I understnd if you do not want to say. I will say whatever the cost the owner damn sure got his money's worth.
