Looking good, Bill. Your picture reminds me that I need to give mine a good detailing after driving it the last few days.

Is it ever NOT clean? Your car is absolutely beautiful! You inspired me to buy the SLP spoiler for mine -- should be here in a few days, painted & ready to install.

Nice looking Vette. The C5 is withstanding the test of time nicely. This car demonstrates that.

I'm sure it was just a mess when you started.

Looks much better now.

Good job.

Carry on.

What we need are before & after photos. You don't expect us to just take your word that your car actually needed cleaning?

You have really got the car looking good. Nice and clean with mods that enhance it not distract from it. And as usual, the pics are great.
