  • Oldskool heritage 1955 Porsche 550 Spyder reflects on a Newskool Cayman S "PDK"......

    Here is a very unique Beck 550 Spyder that I did a for a VIP customer of mine. It had been up north for sometime, the builder fabricated it but it just sat on the showroom floor without an owner. Its a 2007 that had 500 miles sporting a twin weber 2156cc built V.W. engine. It had been very neglected and needed some love as it sat in the factory looking for a new home when my client stummbled across it. SOLD....perfect mate for his 2009 Porsche Cayman S "PDK"

    Rebal without a cause

    Oldskool meets Newskool...........after extensive paint correction was performed for major water spot damage and lots of dull scratched areas......


    Hybrid wash begins, degrease and pressure wash wheel wells and ONR the complete exterior

    ONR mixed at appropriate ratio applied using a pump sprayer, which allows mist to attach to surface contaminants


    Wiping down entire vehicle with ONR and MF's mixed accordingly in a bucket



    Break for an interior shot, what a beauty...gorgeous red Brazilian leather and a classic Nardi wood and billet steering wheel. Gotta love the the push start above the key..


    Thorough claying and surface prep begins right here


    A sample of some of the extensive paint correction that was ahead of me.

    Paint correction begins with some rotary work for hard water spot damage and what looked like unpolished wetsanding marks

    Straight up polishing for ultimate gloss and perfection, I love these LC 4" pads!!


    Completly corrected and major gloss factor, this color totally came to life!


    Completed shots of this 550 Spyder







    Newskool dialed up! The daily driver looking stealth

        You really did make that light color on the Beck 550 come to life! Those are just awesome little replicas, too. And that Cayman - yowza!
