Is this what you used to polish the middle exhaust pipe? I have some of these. If so, you must have went through LOADS of them and must have taken you FOREVER:eek:

I plan on just painting the whole underside of my truck black when I get around to it... that should make it look a LOT better. Painted my trailer hitch black and that really make the back of my truck look better.

I give him credit.



But I give credit more to people that keep their daily driven cars looking 99% as good as a show car. Now that`s autopian.

do it man, try something like Herculiner bedliner on it. I did it to my stang and it looks good, and really helps keep the dirt from sticking

Pat, my Z is jealous. :p



That looks absolutely AMAZING. This is one area where I haven`t had a chance to get to yet.

damn, even this mustang owner is impressed! :p



but seriously, no matter what kind of car you drive, that is some serious dedication. i tried that once on my Mach1, and i got it to look half as descent. and i have less miles than him! then again, my Mach1 gets driven all the time, rain or shine.



and Pat, that`s one nice undercarriage!

Thanks for all the compliments everyone. The sad part is that once you get started you can`t stop lololol :D



It was pretty easy to do. Basically jack up the rear of the car and go to town. I have an open bed trailer now and that makes keeping it maintained very easy.



Its nice to show off at car shows. I have a mirror that I angle up so that people can see the suspension.



I just got some new chromed suspension pieces that I will be putting on at the end of the show season.

Holly crap, I`ve got a lot of work ahead of me.

Well said... exactly what I was going to say!



It`d be pretty simple keeping any car that clean after only 4000 miles of dry weather driving.



If he was over here in the UK and only wanted to drive it in dry weather the car would only have about 40 miles on the clock! :p



Look at where the guy is from.... Minnesota it snows there like

8- 10 months out of the year!!! :eek:

He has plenty of time to do the undercarriage :lol



But a nice job anyway
