She's a beauty. GLWTS.

If that car needs detailed, then my cars must need full restorations because yours looks GREAT already!

BTW, congrats on the Daytona... my first love as a car kid, too. "365GTB4" was my password and PIN for everything from my teens onward. Now I use, "singleagain" for everything.

J/K!

Thanks Johnny Bahamas. RS is clean but has a lot of CO and NM red dust and dirt in all crevices. I'm very anal about those things and want to sell car as nice as possible. I will post pictures of detailing process, for those fascinated by such trivia.

I've had 4 B/4s and this one S/4 that I owned from 81-93 and now again.

They've finally started detailing the RS!
Lets see what end product will be. Should be done by mid next week and we"ll see what those fender wells/suspension/motor looks like.

I've given up doing it myself. I could never get it right regardless of time spend and bleeding knuckles.

Is there a listing or advertisement for this car?

edit:
found the old listing:

http://www.ecarlist.com/cgi-bin/show...49199&d_id=947

ps. Looks like the car has changed setup since it sold from Ruf? Could be a great track car at the right price. Looking at those pics, I'm curious to know how the full AWE exhaust sounds. And the detail might want to get a wheel place to touch up the back rim of the wheels. Is it wearing studs?

I have not changed anything on car except new tires and Rennline track mats.
Will look into wheels! Thanks for heads up!

Here's another picture from underneath. They are further along they just haven't sent me pictures.

PS: Since my partner is looking for 996 TT, I will consider a really nice one as part trade.

Oh, never mind. I went back to look again and saw the "Passion for Detailing" sign. It's as big as the car, hard to miss.

Duuhh!
