Yeah... I already know what you're thinking...

But Mike, the finish looks GREAT!


Just wait till I document the true and accurate condition...

:laughing:
 
Can't wait!!!

Never really liked those cars...errr...uh...I should say most of the colors not the cars as the cars are great. However, I really like the looks of that one even "as is." It's gonna get a chance to really glow before too long...I can feel it. LOL!!!
 
That thing looks great under poor lighting. Lets see what it looks like under proper lighting.

Mike, when you guys finish that car see if you can talk the owner into trying to keep rubber off the rear quarters. Lol.

That poses an interesting question... how much burnt goodyear boogers are in the fenderwells and what would be good to remove them?

I've seen this car in FULL SUN and it hurt my eyes... it's my good buddy Tommy's Cuda and he had it on display at the recent Corvette show we worked at...

I didn't get a lot of pictures this year because I stayed pretty busy showing "Car Guys' how to properly buff out paint to remove defects without inflicting swirls at the same time.

Here's Tommy's new 1970 Plymouth Barracuda with a 440, 727 Transmission, Hemi Orange with a Black Vinyl Top and believe it or not, even though the paint looks good in this picture it's COMPLETELY SWIRLED OUT! So expect to see this this car in an upcoming show car makeover.

See, I even posted in the above thread it was swirled-out. Tommy bought it this way but since meeting Tommy he and his daughter have learned how to create a rolling work of art here at AutogeekOnline.net

Nice save on a beautiful car. :xyxthumbs:

Mike, I think there's something wrong with the above link which you posted. It takes me to only one photo of the car... this one:
