Repeat customer and collector friend of mine shot me a message and needed me to come up to his place to take care of a few things.

He grabbed a pair of 1987 Chevy trucks. Pretty much twins except one has black interior and the other with red interior. One has only 1k miles and the other one, get this 37 miles! YES 37 MILES!!!!

So he wanted me to gloss up the 37 mile truck as he will be keeping that one and selling the other one most likely.

Prep- Not much prep was needed. Just a quick wipe down with ADG wipeout.

Polishing- The factory red single stage paint had some oxidation on it but otherwise wasn't too bad. The older vehicles definitely don't have the quality paint jobs of newer vehicles lol. Just a nice one step with my Rupes 21mm/Flex PXE and yellow igl foam pads using IGL F1 worked wonders without being overly aggressive.

LSP- IGL Premier

Can't believe that mileage! Time capsule is right! Cleaned up well!
 
Wow. Looks great. I do wonder what the rationale is in preserving those particular trucks. I bet they’re worth a bit now though.

I hope he paid you for those pads! Crazy.

Well let's it put it this way. He paid 115k for the pair. The one seen here is worth around 80k most likely with the options. These days it not just rare muscle cars that fetch money. He has quite a few big dollar vehicles.

And the pads washed up good as new with some hot water and dawn.

So he just bought them recently?
 
That's awesome! Greta job detailing this beauty.
