haha, good one mike.
Car looks great Richard. I remember the good ol' days when I had free time like that to polish a car. Might get mine done in the spring over the course of a week though.

How long does this last before you need to re-do. Also, can you have one of your surfing girl friends take the pictures next time?

hey thanks guys!
I drove up to Huntington Beach after that (20 miles) and it was dirty by the time I got there. Black attracts dirt and dust like no other. I did it more to get a good base on the paint. It will be much easier to clean and detail now.

THat is beautiful!
The rear end looks especially nice! where the roof meets the trunk, that space around there just looks sweet, and the spoiler delete was a great choice
Too bad the enlarged pics arent working (it's right click and save time!)
