Belongs to Liz`s brother. I detailed it as a birthday present to him. Most of it is original, the paint is not though. 46,xxx orig miles. Everything was in pretty excellent shape. The paint had a lot of swirling though and the roof was badly marred/dulled. Single stage dark green paint. Final processes:



-S+W

-Opt Clay with S+W as lube

-Optimum Car Polish via rotary and LC Cutting Pad @ 1500 rpm

-Optimum Car Polish via rotary and LC Finishing Pad @ 1500 rpm

-Clearkote Vanilla Moose by hand on EVERYTHING

-S100 Paste Wax by hand on paint and chrome



-303 Aerospace on tires

-Hyper Dressing in wells

$#%@$% Awesome!



Definitely a very noticable improvement in depth and wetness. Ah, VM/S100 takes me back a couple summers ago. So much new stuff you kind of forget just how good your old favorites look. :)

Excellent job on a timeless muscle car. Is it a 351C or 351W?

Thanks everyone :).



Scott: I was just going through my stuff and was like "Why the hell not!"





bimmer330: Does the "C" stand for Cleveland? If so, then that`s it.

So so true Scott. I can remember when S100 was all the rage and VM/S100 was the "go to" combo.. :buffing:

is that cutting pad yellow? Also do you notice any time difference it takes to detail a car with 8" pads over the 6" pads?
