Guy works at a VW stealership and sends me clients as often as he can. He loves old VW and found this one owner car on ebay for $700

Finally he had a new engine put in it and asked me to try to make it shiny.

The paint was totally flat.

I know! I did another one just like this and looked identical - both owners have small kids

I missed one

Those Rover owners are truly dirty people. No excuse for an interior like that, kids or not. I have two kids, my parents had 4 and neither I nor they ever had interiors that looked like a freakin' landfill.

Very nice job cleaning it up, I can imagine how unpleasant it was.

Just FYI, www.photohost.org/gallery gives 10MB free storage space and has been really reliable for the last several months.

thanks Scott - I pay $25 a year for photobucket and have unlimited space.

What I mean is that the pictures on my computer (prior to uploading them to photobucket) look "right" - no ghosting (see the Jetta) or what ever that is called.
