Vehicle going to Concorso today, had the "Bing" come out for the week to help with this car and a Maserati Gran Turismo.



This car was in bad shape as you will see in the initial pics, so here it is.

Customer requested something be done about the severe orange peel on the finish, and I explained it can be done ..........but the vehicle would have to have healthy paint readings and I would do 3000 grit as opposed to 1000/1500/2000 etc so there would be enough for clear for future corrections.



Here is the start of that part of the correction.

KILLER! So mean in black, and so perfect once the factory orange peel was removed. No doubt the owner had a large bill - but one look at the car and it is completely worth it. Can't wait for the Maserati from you two
