I just got the car yesterday and man it was in horrible condition. Daily driven to the fullest with some hardcore battle scars to prove it! Process took about 8 hours for an inside an out job that received the full treatment (engine bay was excluded). Enjoy the pics.

It looks beautiful! What are you planning to do with the upholstery on the driver's seat?

thanks for the kind words everyone, I should have stated that the owner dropped the car off yesterday for a detail (not mine) so sorry for the confusion. Tips for detailing you say?? Having OCD and nit picking helps get the job done. Also the camera that I use is a regular point and shoot canon sd750.
