Re: Its not always about perfection!!!! 71 caddy and a 02 toyota sequoia
Same thing with this 71 Cadillac! This guy owns a garage door business and while the installer was at the house, the owner of the car basically said just get the thing out of my way! FREE pickup, drop a little bit of money into it, sell it!!! Thats the plan...a new AC unit, battery, and little other things, plus a clean up detail, and this thing will sell for a solid 5K or so...lucky, I have been looking for cars like this and he comes up on one... 
Befores:
Split shot right side done, left untouched!
Afters:
the paint on this caddy was pretty hammered and needed to be wetsanded completely! There was no "saving" it, just cleaning it up a lot! I ended up with 105 and PRC for the compounding/polishing/waxing...this combo gave it some nice gloss in the end!!

The befores make me shiver in detailing anxiety.
Great turnaround. I sometimes lack the patience to do the whole thing at once, and get rushed in the finer things.
Does that Sequoia have non-OEM brakes? They calipers look beefy.

nice job on both; love that Caddy. There is a car that could get hit by a train and you could still be able to walk away from.
