Great job! That hood shot alone is worth a thousand words. Great color too. Looks like time well spent. Thanks for sharing it with us.

Re: 88 VW Fox

I used a Flex DA and Cobra pads.

I have to say I liked working with the Menzerna and the Black hole.
Very nice products to work with.

Re: 88 VW Fox

I always like seeing older cars that people would usually consider to be a "beater" (even if its actually in decent shape) that have better looking paint than 98% of the cars out there on the road.
