    Good work. I hope you removed those decals on the hood. That would increase the car`s value at least 15%!

    I am not certain I like the decals either, but they are factory, so I don`t think they lower the value at all. When he bought it, it was one of like 2 or 3 in CA of that model in convertable with a stick. It`s F*N fast!! I got to drive it a bit.

    I hate to see cars like that sit out 24/7.....The sun can do a lot of damage after a couple of years. The interiors get cooked and the rag top won`t last ......



    Excellent job of bringing that paint back to life.........:xyxthumbs

    Yeah, and it sucks because I can`t put my car away, no garage here. :angry

    Gorgeous! Cracking defect correction form the Optimums, a really sharp looking finish and a nice gloss to the yellow achieved there too.

    This client keeps his 66 GTO and 68 Firebird in the garage for now, but I guess he just bought a house with a 4 car garage. He has 6 cars and a boat so he needs more room still. I wish that was my problem.
