Default lookie lookie!!!!! Bently

This is an older car and one of the original supercars! Its a 89 Bently Turbo R. Really a neat car and has some crazy options for a car of this age, even stuff that comes in our normal cars today, but think of that stuff in 89! The owner of this car just wanted a simple wash and wax and to have the interior cleaned up and wiped down. The paint is original and has many defects due to it being a car that was once driven on the autobahn!!!!!!! When this car was shipped into the states they required the car be altered to meet standards on the roadway here so the right hand drive was converted to normal for us!!!!! I don't have the final pics, because i haven't finished yet but ill have them this afternoon!

I think his Ferrari will be next in line! Might do the Maserati first, it needs some tlc. This man is in his 80's and all he does is wash them with some cheap soap and then thinks that zaino wax will fix everything haha! I hope he likes what I did to the Bentley! He could hire me full time to keep his fleet clean and ready to ride! Might try to get on a regular detail schedule with him for all of his cars!

Not a fan of camel, saddle, or brown. I grew up round brown cars, & can't stand brown shades now.

Anyway, that Vette w/. the GN motor, now that's cool. Those old Jags while wiring was sketchy, had looks & just beautiful lines.
