Awesome job - I'm surprised you:

2) The owner wanted to pay to have it redone!

<sigh> My work isn't even worthy enough to be posted in the same forum as this type of stuff Barry. :( I just finished a 1987 300 SDL and now I want to delete my post. lol



I bet this post even made Jesus himself say "DAMN!" ;) I'll finish posting my sun shot of the MB 300 SDL I just did, just don't expect me to be in the same realm of skill as this type of work. /cheer



Lol Adam thanks alot!

Nice work as always Barry. What we do isn't just about transforming a vehicle, but it's also about adding (resale) value to the car. Especially in challenging economic times, buyers and sellers alike will be more inclined to pay attention to our services if we take the time to focus on that aspect as well as educate them accordingly. If I were you I would dedicate a section on my website about this, and use this particular vehicle as a prime example.



Keep up the great work! :)



+1: And definitely get a testimonial from the owner. BTW, how did the owner react to this turnaround?

Barry...just incredible. What percentage of the clear coat do you estimate you removed to cut underneath that oxidation?



Not really sure, the hard part was getting threw the oxidation. Once I got threw it, I was golden!!!! Thanks

He was literlly speechless for about 30 seconds! good feeling it was. thanks for the kind words!
 
This is the most incredible turnaround I have ever seen. In fact, I have been following the threads on this forum for about two years, and don't think I have ever stopped to make a comment about how impressed I have been until now. Nice work!
