    1970 Barracuda Extreme Makeover

    1970 Barracuda Extreme Makeover


    Show Car Finish by Pinnacle





    Worst Holograms Ever?





    So here's how the car looked when Tommy arrived with it at Autogeek... looks pretty good huh?




    Swirl City - Every square inch of paint was filled with holograms from a rotary buffer
    Now I move around to the other side of the car and wait for the sun to poke its head out from the clouds and here's what it really looks like...










































    This is my finger pointing to the light from a Brinkmann Swirl Finder Light




    This is my finger pointing to the flash from my camera...

    Here's what it looks like after we used rotary buffers to remove the swirls and scratches and then machine polished using DA Polishers and then machine applied Pinnacle Souveran Paste Wax.

    I have some video footage to upload and add to this thread too...


    We had 3-4 new guys from the Gold Coast Corvette Club Car Show join us last night and I put them to work plus Paul and Chris from my last Boot Camp Class and then a few of our regulars like Rene, (who has been MIA since having his new baby, congratulations and good to see you back, Tim and of course Tommy.


    Ray from work here helped out too and took a lot of pictures of the machine polishing process and I'll try to add them too...


    Just want to say thanks to everyone that helped out and thank you to Tommy for trusting Autogeek with his 440 Cuda!

    Turned out awesome! Any luck doing some roasting of the tires for all your hard work?

    Wow. Awesome results.

    Doesn't the owner also have an equally nice Z28?

    Hi Tim,

    Thanks for all your hard work last night helping out with all the machine buffing. I've created a sign-up thread for your 57 Chevy and it will probably be sometime in November after we get back from SEMA

    Yes, we also did an extreme makeover on his 1970 1/2 Split Bumper Camaro and used all Pinnacle products on it as well...
