Detailing of a different kind...... I've been scrubbing the undercarriage of my C3. A leaking seal in the "diff" forced me to do the "full monte" and remove it. It's time for new suspension bushings and brake caliper reseal. Tomorrow the rattle can comes out for a touchup of what I did 34...

My neighbor bought it and I did it on his dark maroon car. I was surprised how nicely it applied. I did two coats to get some build up in the rock chips in the hood. When done what was obvious at 10 ft away now would not catch your eye at 4 ft. Does not cure but nicely hides.

Separate credit cards.

We're soon going into a week in the 80's in Scottsdale

The 1935 Auburn I’ve taught my friend how to detail, crossed the podium. Donald Osborne (classic car personality) presented the trophy. Time for another project. Photos of the AZ Concours at https://photos.app.goo.gl/yUcekZZkopd4i3NEA

Teak oil is used. To have a RR dealer do it by the book, it's a $2,000 bill. To totally replace the teak $19,000 for the wood kit, installation extra. Looking at one at a reseller recently, it had a inside corner "slat" snapped off on both sides next to where the top irons reside when up. Had...

Beautiful! A friend has the twin to that car but by no means that perfect!!!

Nice save again! I love RR's, That's a great color combo.

Nice save! Love the car, one of my favorite RR's.

I'll post better pictures Mid January at the AZ Concours. Garage photos don't do it justice!

I finished the rear section of the Auburn. The 18 year old restoration is in fantastic shape. Kudos to the painter. It took 7 years for the paint to be completed. No cracks or lifting anywhere!

1935 Auburn. Prepping for the AZ Concours in January. High level restoration by the owner. Teaching him paint correction. Did the front fenders today….. we get distracted easily! Next week the rear fenders and boot.

My pal wanted a lesson in ceramic on his ERay. I won a bottle of Adams Multi Surface Ceramic at their open house so that got the nod. A lot of curves on this one. I put him on both ends with a Pixie & 3" pad and I ran the CBeast with 5". 3D One was used with prep wipe down after because we...
