Low mileage, original 89 Camaro Iroc-z by Advanced Detailing of South Florida

This new client who is an attorney in Coral Gables, saw me in duPont but then also happen to talk to one of his clients who is one of my new venezuelans with a 458 Italia.
The Italia i had done a quick job but he'll be back in a couple of weeks and we have a detail scheduled for then.
Anyway, this car was picked up in California from the original owner.
He had one in high school so this purchase was more for sentimental reasons.
His DD is an M3 and he also talked to me about doing his 38' Donzi that he keeps at his house in the Keys.
The car at first looks really good, being all original and well taken care of.
On closer inspection , you can see the major imperfections in the paint.
There were also a few deep scratches that i used touch up paint on, wet sanded and buffed out during the process.

Upon arrival


Deep scratch on the hood














Hazy look on the trunk








Scratch on the quarter panel


Touch up paint applied


Voila










Oh, btw i like to sometimes use my lights that are not on a stand so i can put it down on the ground and if i need to, i place them on a chair.










50/50 on the hood

Probably better than it was when delivered new. Nice clean survivor. It even had the original style Goodyear VR50 Gatorbacks on it.

Yeah...I saw those Gatorbacks on it too. Those are some old tires.

I had an 89 IROC in burgundy. This thread brings back memories. Of course mine never looked that good. Great job!

Where can I purchase lights like that to examine my work? What is the price range for them?

I got a pair of those 500W halogen lights with an adjustable height stand from Home Depot for 30.00$

Awesome restore on this IROC-Z!!
