Hi guys,

Johnny Woods sent me this link from an auto-detailing forum that he 
frequents (since he's the UK distributor for an especially high-end brand of car 
wax called Harly Wax, made in So-Cal).

It details the fourth visit, a few weeks ago, by a super car detailer named 
Todd, to a mysterious lair in the Great White North.   He stays there for a 
couple of weeks, working insane hours, in a celebration they call Buffest 
(that's Buff-fest).   I was there for the 2010 iteration, and it was pure 
insanity--the level of detail and work to spiff up paint goes a zillion miles 
beyond obsessive!

The owner of the collection is referred to as Dr. X (although he prefers 
Mr. X).

Some incredible cars there, including three one-off De Tomasos!

Mr. X was revealed in the last POCA Profiles, and has become one of my best 
friends in the past few years.   In fact, I'm the one that drove the Ghia 
450SS (pictured extensively in the link below for him some 2100 miles back in 
July, as he trailered the Bizzarrini 5300 Strada.   He's planning to visit 
me here at my house in a couple of weeks.

I plan several visits to his place this year; watch for features on his 
cars in upcoming Profiles!
