Testarossa Restoration
Discussion
Ive been meaning to start this thread for ages.
We have had this Testarossa for sale at Amari Super Cars for a while, and while it was quite a clean example, it is getting on for 23 years old and we felt it could do with a freshen up.
A few before pics:

So on the ramp it went, off came the wheels and the brakes / suspension was inspected. Looked to be in good working order, but can look a lot better. We want these cars to look good top to bottom.

Great thread but isn't that all the stuff that should have been rectified before you tried to sell it for top dollar ?
Did you just buy it, polish it and pop a for sale sticker on it ?
It is stuff that would have been done before sale anyway, just never found a time to do it.Did you just buy it, polish it and pop a for sale sticker on it ?
Now we have the time, so I thought others would like to see the process.
