Default She cleans up nice! Pics.

Cleaned the vert today. Looks pretty good for 80k miles. Gonna order some raggtop and leatherique to work on the top and seats.



Tried to get these two as close as possible. Going to work on getting some side by side shots.

Nice looking cars and a great color,but garbage containers in the background do detract a little. I prefer a background like this.
