When tasked with detailing a 1997 McLaren F1 GTR Longtail worth well into the eight figures, one doesn’t simply hose it down and vigorously rub it with a microfiber towel. No.
What’s needed is a dedicated team of some of the world’s very best detailers working together as if they’re performing delicate brain surgery on the queen of England. During Monterey Car Week, that’s exactly what Larry Kosilla and his team did.
Offered the chance to detail this near priceless McLaren F1 for the Quail and Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance, detailing company Ammo NYC embarked on a 138 man hour marathon to ensure this famed racing car looked as good as it did when it left the factory almost 20 years ago.
Featured in this 30-minute video is every detail which went into this tireless detail that ultimately saw the car walk away with the ‘Spirit of the Quail’ award. For anyone with even the slightest interest in detailing, this is well worth a watch.
