Detailer's Domain: Porsche 911 Turbo X50 Cab - a long one
Look what happens when you loan out your 911 Turbo Cab (X50)
I get a call from Marc Faraj at Town Motors Porsche and he tells me he did something bad.....
I asked him what can be so bad?
He said: I loaned out my 911 Turbo Cab to a buddy.
I said: How bad he says you'll see......
When I received the car it was early morning the sun wasn't out yet, the next day when I was able to pull it out I couldn't believe my eyes! The car was shot!
What was done -

may have been a long one, but definitely enjoyable to see the progression pictures. definitely makes you appreciate the work more. that car was certainly a mess. how long did he loan the car out for? that was quite a bit of damage done by the friend! if pictures are worth a thousand words, this one is worth at least a million:
that 50/50 shot is stunning to say the least this just shows how bad the condition of this car actually was in. very nice job as usual phil & team
