Thanks guys. I'm very happy with how it turned out. Went with some new products this time and the glow from the paint is much better than last year. My neighbors probably think I'm crazy pulling it out of the garage every time there's sun to check over the paint then put it back in the garage and polish and clean more, but hey keeps my busy in the spring. Now I just wish I could drive it. Rain has been horrible this year.

That, as I have said in other post, is dedication, pure and simple.
You should be extremely proud of what you accomplished.
The wheels are just icing on the cake.
Absolutely beautiful.

Bob.

Post-count-padding cleverly disguised as a compliment. Nice shot!

Excellent work. I went through a similar undertaking two years ago with my '04 Z06. Torch red, as well. Tons of work, but I was so proud of the car when all was said and done. And thank God for my Griot's orbital!

I still have my Adam's swirl killer new in the box waiting to be used. Moving right now has made it hard for me to detail the vette right now.
