This is my second GTO. I had a blast!

Full Interior/Exterior

Polish (megs 205 orange LC on GGDA) No need for 105 this time, the paint was already in great shape. Single stage

Glaze (Megs 7)

Wax (NXT)

Sealant (WDGPS)

Engine & undercarriage detail

Total 14 hrs. 2hrs yesterday, 12 hours today with 1 break. But that was because the customers wife wanted me to eat tacos (good tacos)... lol who needs breaks.

Too many pictures so here's a link,

OH MAN, what a thread!!

The undercarriage is incredible!

1967 I think.....:dblthumb2:
 
That is incredible! The undercarriage really got me!
 
Wait now that i think about it, i think its a 65 lol
 
Can you tell me how you got rid of the left over compound, APC and a toothbrush? I have some left over compound on a car from a body-shop; it's a bear to get off.

A flux brush, MF towel, DPRW and patience.
 
I should elaborate on the flux brush. Much like this,

But I trimmed the bristles so it would be a little stiffer. It works pretty good. I like flux brushes because you can put a stick inside them to extend them to get into the radiator or other hard to reach places

The owner has had a few estimates. They range from 50-70K because of all the modifications.

Well, I know what I would like to spend some of my retirement money on in a few years. You do great work, that car is gorgeous, never seen a undercarriage that spotless. Great attention to detail. Most people would never appreciate the amount of work and effort that goes into that job. :dblthumb2:

Thanks! It was a lot of work but I have to admit, the owner takes good care of it. It makes it easier especially with an air conditioned garage and lift lol
 
Also, the interior was recently completely redone. Everything, and I mean EVERYTHING..... is either brand new or restored to perfection so I didn't have to do much in the interior. Basically wipe the layer of dust off and ad some protection.
