Pics of my dad's 1940 Buick and mom's 2000 Camry

Didn't really have much to do today, so I decided to wash my parents cars. The first one is a 2000 Camry, and the second, a 1940 Buick sport coupe with 49,000 original miles on it, 99% original car. Both are kept outside, the Camry is a daily driver and the Buick just sits under a car cover. I used the free sample of Meguiar's Quik-suds that I got and it worked really well, then I used Eagle One WET on the Camry, then used Wax as u dry. Enjoy.

Trunk shot....keep in mind as far as I know this car has never been waxed. I used gold class on the Buick 2-3 months ago and it beaded like I just waxed it, but I'm not surprised since it's been driven twice since then, and is always covered outside or under a carport.

Hood shot...looks pretty good for a silver car.

Looks pretty sweet to me.

Are you planning on giving each the full treatment?

Eventually, yes. I just need my parents to agree not to make it a mess again (the Camry....you should see the interior. It only takes about 4 or 5 days for it to look like that too). The Buick is swirl city, but the paint seems rather soft so it shouldn't be too bad of a job.
