Car looks good! If you're serious about showing it, it's the tiny things that make the biggest difference.

Get to the show early and remove the wheels entirely for a thorough cleaning. Make sure the tire shine is even and smooth. The smallest sore spot of dirt will bring the whole car with it.

Same goes for the interior. Guys that I know that show bring quetips and dust pads and make sure every crevice is dust free.

There's a guy I used to be in a club with that has a stock 01 Bullit. In a class of bullit's how does one car get distinguished over another. The details! He would spend several hours on the car once it was parked in it's spot prior to the show. He routinely took home best in class trophies.

Umm, depending on what the dog left on the wheels in pic 414, you might not be ready.

Car looks great! What did you used to shine the wheels/tires?

My Apollo wouldn't do that to me.

Zaino Z-8 on the rims and Zaino tire shine on the tires.

I really like the 2010 dark chrome pony and tinted fogs. I think I might have to do that. Where/How do you do that to the fogs?

Very true!! I entered my first show & shine last summer. The judges found two water spots on the bottom of the driver's door ...that was it! Took first place in the 2007-2011 California Special. The devil is in the details. She looks ready. That is a beautiful color.

Thanks for the advice, greatly appreciated. I have never done one of these before.

Your dealing with an apple geek here. Lol!
I find if I clean it every-time after I take it out it saves me on the all weekend routine when I do decide to go all out on cleaning it.

Thanks for all the compliments and advice everyone it's greatly Appreciated!!
