Re: 1986 Ferrari Testarossa 2nd one!
Stunning results, that red is glowing, but I have to say, they are not a pretty car, personal opinion.
I had to do some googling as well, that mirror sticking out looks bizarre, I've never noticed that on Testarossas before, but I see that some have "normal" type mirrors, some have one high sticking out, others have two high ones. I see the need for it though, with those super wide hips.

Thank you!!! Yes, they switched to 2 'normal' mirrors mounted lower later on. This model is allegedly more desirable to collectors...

Scott, the paint looks like it's plugged into an outlet️
Btw I posted some of usual FuelFed pics and there were a pair of GT3's there from Florida, one a GT3 while the other was a GT3RS Weisn (not going to try and spell it)

A Testarosa from that generation was a poster on my bedroom wall for over a decade until I moved out on my own. I still have a scale model on a shelf in my home office. Love the look of that car.
The single stage paint was a surprise. I thought by that time Ferrari would have been using a clear coat. What was it like polishing out the all those side strakes?
Oh...and the car looks amazing! You rolled back the clock back to factory fresh with all your hard work.

Thanks everyone!!
Strakes are the most time consuming part--majority done by hand. Yep, the other Rarri's of that era that I've done were all SS paint.
Appreciate the comments!!!

I'm with Big Dave, that car is not my cup of tea; however, you did an amazing job as always
Curious about the pads you used, how clean were you able to get them?
