[blonzz]

I detailed up the 442 a bit for the Olds gathering next weekend. One coat of Nattys Red followed by a coat of Zymol Destiny.

I have never added a layer of one wax on top of a layer of another wax, but one cannot argue with the outcome!

you can, but as long as the lsp doesn't contain any cleaners or it will remove the first wax :grrr

I don't think its the same car.

First pics look great though. A friend of mine was talking about those cars last night. He got to drive one a while back and it scared the crap out of him.

Nope. No stripes on the hood, mirrors, and no tint on the windows among other things. But if thats the unrestord car, it would be quite a turn around.



Great detail anyway! That engine bay looks amazing.

Nice!



I was wondering what happened to you. You're doing just fine and obviously don't need my help.

Incredible detail. This was the first call I saw that got me into muscle cars.

 

[boogiejoe]

Wow that wax must be great! It looks like it added stripes, scoops, a spolier and better tires!



The car looks amazing. Nice job.

And different wheels too!

Thanks,



Yes it's the same. The last picture is the unrestored car. That's what it looked like after I pulled it out after 19 years of garage storage in 12/04



Sorry for the confusion. I did a complete frame on restofication.



Here's the undercarriage.

I absolutely love it. Great American muscle car. Thanks for the memories!!!!

 

[boogiejoe]

Did you repaint it, or did you just make the paint look that much better?

 

[RTexasF]

All kidding aside that is one fine ride. I had a '72 Cutlass in the same color and still miss it to this day. Congratulations on one incredible restoration.

New paint.
