Today I had to fly out on business for the week and my good friend who is a master hobby detailer ( he is obsessed) volunteered to drive me to the airport. We took the 928 and he drove it back.
Just got a picture of the 928 and he had a nice surprise... he took the 928 to his garage and he went to town detailing it! Its nice to have friends like that

Thanks! Cant wait to get back and see it.
Dont think he does, he recently moved to BC and thankfully 5 minutes away from me
If you take a trip to BC we could organize a detailing party... He is pretty **** about his work and he absolutely loves detailing. At the moment he does it for fun but I'm trying to convince him to turn it into a business. Very few guys I know have his work ethic...

Wow! That is really beautiful work. Only thing that could be better is if your friend was a she with other benefits.

LOL... That would be very complicated as I'm taken But can you imagine your wife/gf been an obsessive detailer and taking pleasure detailing the cars? Talking about a perfect combo

Your 90 has similar color right? That is very very unique as well! Would not mind seen more pics of that beauty!

It is great to have friends like that. In 1972 I had a 66 dodge street hemi. I used to have a fried come by on Saturdays that would take the car out to detail it. He would do it just to drive the car. He was very trustwrothy and the best friend a guy could have. I don't know if I ever had to detail that car much.
