Progress on jeff's car
 

Well I'm detailing Jeff's ss396 and here are some progress pics with wet sanding and compounding tommarow im going to finish up polishing and waxing... And sorry about the color its the lighting in my shop it allows me to see scratches clearer but the pictures dont come out as well...

After wash and claybar it was worse then what the pictures show

sweet mother of god! I think my heart is gonna stop next time I see his car :drool:

I just don't understand why people put so much work into cleaning and polishing their beater cars.

wow Rich that looks great!

The car always looked good on overcast days or late in the day when the sun was going down. But you could see all the marks on a nice sunny day. Looks like it's cleaning up pretty good Rich.

Polished chrome plated tow hitch. :nod:

Looks great, especially on a black car.

He should get a billet hitch.

Too much bling for a tree hugger.:lol:

Yeah, pretty sure your gonna do my car later this year :lol: that is amazing, you have quite a talent there.

The car looks great Rich! Now I need to get it outside for some decent pictures. That clearcoat was hurting and it was definitely worth it to get it freshened up.

Next he fixes the JL8 car.

Good lawd....
That is nice. I really really really wish I had about 2 grand so I could fix all the body problems with the 72.

Looked pretty dam amazing here:

I can only imagine how much more amazing it will look when shes finished!

I def agree as long as it wasnt in direct sunlight or under artificial light it looked great especially from farther away but as soon as the sun hit it you could see all the deep swirls and scratches.... still has some problems with sanding marks etc under the clear but no one can fix that without a re paint

I'm posting final pictures in a new thread now

Man...I wonder what you could do to the Caprice!!
