Anyone like the Beatles? 1966 Ferrari 275 GTS - George Harrison's Personal Car


This is an ALL ORIGINAL car. Original paint, motor, running gear, interior, canvas top, plastic back window etc.















Here you can see the dust accumulation on the paint and one of the burn-through or strike-through areas.





Here's the other burn-through area or if you're in Europe, I think you guys call this strike-through.







I'm going to be sharing some videos of this project as I work through it on my Instagram and Facebook page if anyone cares to see how I tackle this car.

Here's the order in which I currently plan to tackle this car.


1: Machine polish the inside and outside of the rear plastic window.

2: Vacuum and then blow-out the canvas convertible top.

3: Apply RaggTopp Fabric Protectant

4: Machine scrub the tires

5: Waterless Wash the car

6: Machine polish the glass

7: Machine correct the paint

8: Seal the paint

9: Dress the tires


The idea being at least initially, do the things that will get the car dirty first i.e. polishing the plastic window and cleaning and protecting the canvas top.

"Baby You're a Rich Man" must certainly apply.

Will Mike get to detail John, Paul or Ringo's past rides....
