So many vettes lately 1960 Corvette

[David Hayward]

Well I went to a local classic car cruise and handed out cards and a few months later i got a call from one of the cars that I really wanted to work on. It was a 1960 corvette that was just "buffed out" and I had the hard task of approaching the owner and offering my service and after today I got a lifelong client.

Its a 1960 Vette with insane holograms and swirls.

I did a waterless wash with DP waterless wash and a nano skin fine followed by a cut with my flex 3401 with orange hybrid pads and fg400 on the heavy scratches and orange pad with pf2500 on the swirls and holograms. Followed up with a final polish using a white pad and sf4000 and then Chemical Guys Jet Seal and Pinnacle Souveran Paste wax. Interior was mostly a wipe with CG leather conditioner and the seats were CG leather cleaner with a nail brush and then CG leather conditioner. Polished the wheels with a Meguiars cone and CG heavy metal polish. All pics in order from start to finish and a few extras of his other cars that are now all booked which makes me very happy.

Nice work. Nice collection of cars!

[jamesboyy]

Wow, amazing work on that classic black Corvette we should call you the Corvette god you adds value to any corvette(and any vehicle for matter) though you have some great canvases ahead of you that will get top notch perfecting

[iron_worker]

That is a serious collection!

... and DANG that old vette looked great after you were through. :xyxthumbs:

[Mike@DedicatedPerfection]

Outstanding work Dave! Beautiful transformation. I'm sure the owner was impressed.

Sub'd to see the rest of these vehicles completed.

[Klasse Act]

You did a fantastic job on the 60', are you nervous to work on that Ferrari? I can't wait to see the work on the 65' G.T.O., its one of my top 5 favorite cars of all time!

[David Hayward]

He was super happy. He previously paid someone to come to his place and they hologramed up. Also he has paid 3 people to do their lexus and it's in worse shape than the Vette was. So it explained why he was hesitant to hire me at all for anything. I'm doing a cquartz job on their lexus Tuesday and I'm not sure which car Friday yet.


I'm a little nervous on the Ferrari but more excited than anything. It's in decent shape compared to the other cars so it shouldn't be much work.

[ronkh57]

Beautiful work

Here is a link to the next car for him for anyone that was following.
