    NWCD #01....74' Chevrolet Corvette Stingray

    This 74' Chevy Stingray needed a lot of work, it recently had a paint job about 2 years ago and WOW, this could've been the worst paint job I've seen.
    Half of the whole T-top was covered with paint bubbling and there's a spot on the right rear quarterpanel that I have absolutely NO idea what it is. So of course I put it up for your viewing.
    I was very tempted to do correction, but unfortunately I am not able at this moment and also she didn't want to go that far with the detail.
    Anyway, I did my Level 1 Package for her just to get it cleaned up enough for her to sell.
    So here she is...

    Beautiful work on a classic American vehicle

    Can anyone tell me what this defect is, or how it is caused?

    Is it correctable?

    Nice job. That should add a few dollars to the sale price.

    All of the above choices were probably the right ones to go with as you don't want to cause any more problems by doing basic procedures that might have caused worse problems albeit no fault of your own.

    Thanks Mike!
    Yeah the entire car was covered with scratches and swirls so it needed a lot of work. But she explained she wasn't too worried about it since she was going to sell it. So I gave her the best package that would fit her needs and her budget.
    Good all around experience.
