Re: 1919 Model T, 2 Model A's, Ferrari, Viper, Belaire, Tractor, & Golf Cart
That is definitely a diverse collection. Looks like they were dusty or something from being stored in that building awhile. Safe to say that is the only time I have ever seen a golf cart, Deere tractor, Viper, and Ferrari in the same post.
Great turn around! The Deere came out great. That must have been a PIA with all those small places in the engine area. Did he invite you to the party?

Nice job. But honestly how can you guys say they are so neglected? Sure, the Viper should have had a cover to keep it from getting dirty inside, but they were just dusty. Heck, my car looks like that after sitting in the garage for a few weeks.

Terrific work and if you consider done in 1 day it is a remarkable accomplishment . Love the After of the Deer . You must have used a ton of tire dressing to get the tires looking black .
Cheers , Jean Paul

Looks like a 92 Viper to me  I used to read everything I could about them until they changed in 03...can't stand them now.

Re: 1919 Model T, 2 Model A's, Ferrari, Viper, Belaire, Tractor, & Golf Cart
They weren't all neglected. The Ferrari needed engine work. It overheated a couple times. It has been repainted here and there. Some panels were BC/CC and some were SS paint, which surprised me. Working on one panel, then hit the next and get a ton of paint transfer.
The Viper was really the worst of them all, only because the top was off. In the building that they were in, they were actually building it. Sheetrock, wood, and whatever else was being cut in there. The Belaire was near perfect on the interior, especially for something restored 15 years back.
The model T was mildewed on the wood, but I guess that was to be expected for something sitting for over a year.
Thanks for the compliments everyone. It was a fun 2 1/2 days. I cannot wait until I get to work on the others! Hopefully, I'll get more time on them than these ones!

What did you use on the top cover on the last Model A? Came out great!
