F-150 HD Saleen & 68 Chevy P/U

Clean Dean

Keep it clean !!!
Raining in NJ today, did some indoor detailing…


I detailed this 2008 Ford F-150 Harley Davidson Saleen P/U. Obviously not a full detail (truck is new), but it was ran through a few automatic washes and the black finish showed. Few swirls and light scratches here and there, but nothing 3M Ultrafina couldn’t take out. Sealed with Meguiars #21.

This 68 Chevy P/U was a fairly recent frame off resto-rod , and I last detail her last summer. The single stage paint was a pleasure to work with. I used Hi Temps heavy cut leveler with a green Edge pad at @ 2200 to 2500 rpms. Finished with 3M Ultrafina (white Edge pad) and sealed with #21. The interior is simple vinyl, and really goes well with this type of truck from this era. All exterior chrome was gone over with Speedy metal polish and a MF towel.

Sorry about pics being tight. It was raining all morning here in NJ.

It is funny how my eye changes through the years. I remember very well how much I disliked the look of a 1968 Chevy pickup. Fourty years later I am a new fan. Hmmm...I wonder why?

Nice detail! Thanks for the pictures.
 
My grandfather had that same year and color, or real similar to it in color...I learned to drive in that ride...talk about a flash back!

Both look great the new F150 are sweet rides I think that Ford did a nice design on them inside and out
 
Curious those emblems on the seat, look like metal, I wonder how that feels on your back after awhile...

They look pretty high up on the seat...but what about in the summer when the inside of the car gets above 100 degrees? OUCH!!!!:eek:

Well if you sit in there with out a shirt on in the summer, you will have the emblem tattooed onto your back...or your neck...
 
Once again Dean nice work! Both of those trucks look awesome. :bigups Hopefully the weather around here will clear up
