Damn Gonz, the Stang had to be welcome relief to you after dealing with so many large vehicles, they both look great as expected from your thorough abilities. The glass on the Mustang just compliments the slickness of the work you put in.
 
Ive never seen such a good looking minivan! The results on the Mustang speak for themselves, you did a great job on both cars.







Side note-what color is the Ford truck in the background?

Dune Pearl Metallic.
 
Nice job on both vehicles. The Quest has a ton of paint to polish, I can feel your pain. Meguiars Quick Interior Detailer works great on my wife's van interior. Cleaning up that center column with the crinkle finish is a pain. :2thumbs:
