The CGT looks incredible in yellow! Great picks. That looks crazy labor intensive! Thanks for sharing!

Why does a car have to be pretty much completely taken apart after only 5000 miles?!

I'm not sure but this particular CGT actually had 7000 miles on it so it was a bit past due.

Did the service shop get permission from the owner to have these photos taken. I dont know but I would be kind of pissed if somone took photos of my car while it was taken apart. Even though it was for a service some people look at photos like that and assume something had to have happend to it. It sounds crazy but i deal with stupid stuff like that all the time

Yes, I was given explicit permission by the owner to take these pictures and post online. He's a friend of mine.

Wow! All that just for a 5000 mile service? Wonder what the service charge on something like that is. Awesome pics BTW. Thanks

That was my question. Good to hear you got the owners ok to do this...
