A 91 300ZX twin turbo **56K**eh

[EBPcivicsi]

After detailing a *very* fould van on Saturday, when this showed up Sunday--I was excited!!!



The car is a 91, third owner car that has been fairly well taken care of.



The swirls were fairly severe, but I could not capture them becasue of the lack of sun. Honestly, it`s hard to see any improvement in the pics, but I figured there are some Z fans here, so why not share.



Total time 4.5 hours, the car came to me so that saved me some set up time.

Everything is noticeably better.

The car looks much better! Great work. The front bumper and some elements of the interior look a little beat up (as in holes, wear & tear, and missing paint), but it is a 15 year old car after all.

Honestly, I don`t think anyone could have got that pale yellow color to look as good as you did. Really excellent work on the engine and interior too.
