Sorry about the job. Autogeek is looking for personnel and I see you are in Florida. Wow, that car was a mess, good job bringing it back to respectability. Invest in a clay mitt or towel or get the Nanoskin disc. They last a lot longer than clay and if you drop them you just wash it off. Ironx or some type of iron remover might remove the rust from those rims. They used to make it in paste form so it would stay in place, but it was discontinued. Good luck with your job hunt.
