Ferrari F-40 Detail for Forza Magazine Photoshoot

Called back by a customer who used me in 2007 when I did the car with Tony Ito @ my old shop Performance Art, the entire vehicle had been wrapped in clearfilm sans the back portion of the car. As I was in high production mode (Read busy) I had the help once again of Daniel from Car Connoisseur coming up from So.Cal. Here are some pics taken to show the condition before we got started.

We did some light polishing of the marring in the Lexan engine cover, time would not permit 100 percent correction.

nice job.
interest thing is that i've never saw a F40 with the pilot supersports, always see with vintage tires.
