1 Clean WS6
Detailing Rottweiler
Hey all!!!
Today was a great day. Not only was it sunny and 60's in the ATL but I got to play with this beautiful beast. It belongs to a regular client of mine and he has had the car for close to a year now, however, just recently got it totally buttoned up and street legal-afied. Every time I went over his home I would stare at this car and wait for the day I would be able to get my hands on it.
Nobles' are kit cars shipped from England as a rolling chassis (painted) and a big "box o' parts". This car is chassis # 167 and the owner did nearly 100% of the work in his garage by himself!! Being kits every Noble is different based on the owner. This particular car has the standard issue forged 3.0L bi-turbo V6 with "some extras". I can not do the car justice with all the one off mods the owner made but I know the he has had the heads ported and polished and played with the engine management a bit. He has also added a set of ridiculously rare (in the U.S. anyway) carbon fiber/alloy Dymag rims. Without tires they weigh less than 15 pounds a piece!! He had some custom body work done as well...mainly reducing the size of the side inlet scoops.
The owner has a SCCA license and will track this car.
The paint was of excellent quality with very little OP and LOTS of metallic flake. Fit and finish was pretty darn good for a kit car I might add. The paint was in great shape with just a few rotary trails and some light to moderate marring from setting in a garage for close to a year. Below is a description of products and process used.
Enjoy,
Mike
