Re: What did you do today, in regards to detailing?
My first returning customer.
This Outback was detailed by me a couple of months ago and needed some attention after a trek down a muddy track. The new Kranzle made short work of it and the application of Hydr02 last time really helped with maintenance today. I therefore gave it another coat of anticipation of next time.
The customer was delighted to see it all shiny again and looks like this will be a regular gig.

Not smart of me to follow that beautiful red pony with my red car, but I gave my Z a foam bath with cg watermelon foam, dried with Gyeon silk towel and dressed the tires with Griots Satin tire coating.

I love them all! What really got me hooked on them was my dads old 1981 Camaro. It had a 350 with dart heads, decent cam, and a TH400 with a converter and manual valve body. It was a pretty fast street car in the 90s. My first car was a red 1986 IROC-Z, 305 car with not much power. But I didn’t care. I had it for 9 years and sold it because it just needed too much work after awhile (190k miles, needed floor pans).
I found my current Camaro 4 years ago. While I had my IROC, I drooled all over the 98-02 Camaros on the dealer lots, couldn’t afford one though. Mine has 60,xxx miles on it and is almost the way I would have bought it new. I couldn’t find a 6 speed car that was clean and lower mileage in my budget. But I’m still very happy with it.
My uncle has a 1967 convertible that’s been restored. Also bright red. My FIL has a 2010 SS (orange) that he bought new. I plan to buy it if he ever sells it. Even if my red Z has to go, so be it. My wife and I drove away from our wedding ceremony in his car. It has sentimental value to me, and lots of it.
Major Camaro family here.

Re: What did you do today, in regards to detailing?
Awesome background story! I can definitely appreciate it as a car guy! I really like the styling of those 80’s Camaros as well. Actually most 80’s 90’s cars tend to look good in my eyes and are under appreciated I think. Though I’m sure sluggish performance and HP numbers play into that.
190k on an 80’s American car!? That’s gotta be some sort of achievement. Not surprised rust got to it, I grew up in the Midwest and in the import, mainly Honda scene. Unfortunately rust has had its way with so many cool(used loosely) cars in the area.

Re: What did you do today, in regards to detailing?
Yep, hard miles too. I bought it with a gutted interior, bumpers off, etc. I was under the car about to cut off the stock exhaustion favor of a new (used) exhaust when I started poking around the floors and the rear seat area was a bit soft. Didn’t cut the exhaust, and listed it for sale that week.
Btw I agree with you; I love the first two generations a lot.
As for 80s cars, I’m all about them as well. My holy grail is a Grand National.
