The blue 1971 Chevy Truck is as bad as anyone on this forum has ever tackled. The paint has been completely trashed by someone using a wool pad on a rotary buffer. It's rough like concrete and dull and lifeless with oxidation.


The 1962 Impala is a very high dollar streetrod, everything is perfect on this car except the paint and it's going to be up to the class to make it perfect.


The 1963 Pontiac Bonneville Convertible looks like a very well restored car with a brand new basecoat/clearcoat paint job. Then a local detailer detailed it and it's filled with holograms from a rotary buffer. You guys will be fixing the paint and also steam cleaning the interior and doing a convertible top detail as well.


The 1972 Nova is a respectable streetrod except it's time restore the paint to show quality do to contamination and swirls and scratches over time. Plus we'll be using it for how to clean and protect vinyl tops using 303 products.


The 1999 Suburban is our "Daily Driver" vehicle to learn how to do Production Detailing using a one-step cleaner/wax. Because this Suburban has been neglected for so long it's also our Iron X demonstration vehicle and also our vehicle for learning ow to use extractors.


The 1962 Chrysler 300 Sport is another high dollar restoration and it's perfect under the hood and inside the car but the paint is hacked-up so we'll be using one of the tool sets to restore the paint on this car.

Nice lineup. Can't wait. It is hard for me to believe the nice vehicles you are able to bring to a class full of novices.

This 1933 Ford 2-door Sedan gets out of the body shop today.

If my buddy Mike can get her all re-assembled then she'll be here for our MACHINE wetsanding class on Sunday.

This is before she was painted...






Pretty cool car to learn how to machine wetsand on...



And this 1933 Nash Streetrod will be here for our HAND wetsanding class.

These cars will start showing up Wednesday through Friday. As they arrive I'll capture the true before condition of each car including the interiors for the car that are going to be used for Steam Cleaning and Extractors.


Stay tuned to this thread...


If you're reading this and you attended any of my classes at this year's Mobile Tech Expo, this is what I meant by getting to work and learn on the real deal.
