The burgundy paint job makes the Jag's paint pale by comparison.  You could
tell that this is a lacquer base with many, many, coats of hand-rub on it.
The depth of the reflection looks like a reflecting pool rather than a
painted hood, fender, whatever.  If there is a shop around here doing that
type of painting, I've got to find it.  I drool every time I see it.
