As something as a challenge, a long term client booked this extraordinary Aston Martin over to HQ for a refresh with the brief "Just see what you can do with it". Intrigued already! This car is a kind of ex-Academy/development mule from what I can recall, so although it's properly road legal, it is fitted with so many GT4 parts from the race cars, that it is probably happier high-speed lapping at Spa than it is the M25 in rush hour! My brief was later expanded to enhance the paintwork, engine bay and interior to a level that would see if comfortably reflecting it's place within one of the nicest collection of cars I currently look after.
This update or study is a work in progress, as I am "only" seven hours in and the job is morphing in to something rather more indepth as the detail unravels. A single stage polish is now becoming a dual stage in places. An engine bay clean is now including paintwork in places too, so as you can see.....it's a rabbit hole that is deepening! Once paintwork is dialled in, it will be ceramic coated with Pyramid Car Care's 2 year premium coating. The lightweight £6k AM alloys will also be ceramic coated to ensure their protection against dirt and brake dust biting in hard. There is a tonne of work to do on this sensational car, and it's another one that I have to reflect on, to consider how genuinely fortunate I am to work on. Stay tuned for updates please S. |
