    1965 Chevelle

    I washed this Chevelle yesterday for a customer. It is his pride and joy and was completely restored 2 years ago. Unfortunately it has been sitting for a year and as you will see in the befores that there is quite a bit of dirt bulid up. I will be doing a full detail on the paint here in a few weeks because whoever painted it left wet sanding marks all over the car in all directions if you look closely (you won`t see them in the pics).


    Procedure:
    Wash
    PPP on all chrome
    Megs High Endurance on tires
    EX-P on the glass

    Sorry for the bad lighting I was doing it in the shade because it was pretty warm in AZ today.

    Very nice, again it`s too bad that people have to let a beautiful Chevelle sit around for so long....I would have driven it around for them

    Great job! Man does that bring back the memories. My good friend had one of those and I`ve spent a lot of time looking them. It was however usually in my rear view mirror. :hah

    The car looks great
    Shame the owner didn`t at least have it covered
    But it`s nice to know it`s gonna get back to the way it should look.

    Having purchased a 1965 Tri-Power GTO new in 1965, it really brings back some memories.

    The car was great to work on. The only reason it sits around is because he is afraid it will get all dinged up. I personally would be driving that thing everyday. I am into classics more so than late model vehicles, so it was definitely a treat to work on. Thanks for all the compliments.
