This is a 1967 GTO belonging to Miami Dolphin great Jason Taylor. This car had some pretty bad swirls from only being "washed" with detail spray. We used a 7424XP, WGs Total Swirl Remover on an orange pad, and finished with WG's Finishing Glaze. Then we applied a coat of WGs 3.0 Deep Gloss Sealant, followed by a coat of WG's Fuzion.

The results were awesome! This was in preparation for a car show the following morning at Sun Life Stadium.

Beautiful ride!! Great work thanks for sharing!!
 
Such a perfect blend of old and new! Having had a 1968 Pontiac GTO convertible ram-air 4 back in the day, I find this thread personally appealing...:props:
I want one!! :laughing:

Me too!! After working on all his "classics", he does have them modified nicely! Good blend. Here's a couple others I did for him (all modifications done by Big Dicks Muscle Cars in Tamarac, Fl)







 
Looks real good. But we need about 100 more pics of that mustang. That thing is a Beauty!!
 
JT was always a classy guy when he played for the Dolphins.Nice job on the best year Goat that Pontiac ever produced.JT`s sister is married to another former Dolphin great...Zack Thomas.
 
Great looking cars and fantastic job!

The only thing that throws me are the wheels on the GTO and Stang.
 
That classic modern custom looks amazing that color red is a true winner
 
I agree with BobbyG, looks and distiction of the old car, driveability and reliabilty of a new car. Resto-Rods Rule!

BTW I'd love to see some custom 18" Rallye II's on it!

Also, THANK YOU for showing that 67 Corvette!!!

Actually, JT married Zack Thomas's sister. One of JT's sisters is a talk show host on a local station down here, Joy Taylor. Quite the looker.

And, for some reason, i love the rims on the goat! The Mustang...meh, but they're the actual ones on the Gone in 60 Seconds car so I can see why he went with them.
 
Yep, bunch of really cool rides there, and while I might be a "traditionalist", liking to see a 400ci Poncho Motor under the Goat's Hood, perhaps some more modern Horsepower gives the vehicle a unique distinction, and some pleasant, and also quite strong driveability.

The Stang is killer, man lots of goodies under that hood! Wow!

As for the Vette, what can I say after owning a '67, you should then know my personal pick of the three. I see the signature side "Gills" of a '67, but from the one pic cannot see the '67 rear back up light giving further confirmation that it is indeed a purebred 1967 Stingray?
 
I cannot confirm it is a "purebred" but I know that all three cars were quite expensive. The GTO "may or may not" have been NUMBERS MATCHING before the transformation took place....kinda broke my heart but the results are pretty awesome...

I stand corrected as I knew it was one of the two.I miss those guys on the field but dont miss Lauderdale anymore but still own properties there.I did`nt know JT was a car guy and it`s refreshing that there are not rice burners(not that he could fit in one at 6-6)The Vette must be a challenge for him.

The Vette is the wifes car...I don't think he drives it. And the GTO sits in storage. The GT500 doesn't get driven much either. He has Range Rover and Bentley I believe that he DD's
