WOW! that is really cool I can share in what it takes too clean a motor, I will post some pics of a motor from a'64 Coupe dubbed the "Rust Bucket" you cannot believe someone can let a Corvair GO to POT

I'm working on the mechanicals for what will become my "show car". It's the Toronado conversion in my sig pic with a 425 big block. It has a long way to go to look as good as my red vert. It won't really be a show car either as I plan to drive it often.


Thanks for all the kind words. I just got a new top boot cover from Clark's. I'll have to take some more pics this weekend showing the new cover and the new stance since I cut the front coils.

You clearly do outstanding work. A natural born detailer. Well done.

Update:

I gave up trying to find a good used top boot and bought one from Clark's instead. After installation it made my old interior look really bad so that motivated me to remove the back seat and do a full cleaning. There were problems that no cleaner (or even lacquer thinner) would ever remove so I used SEM spray dye instead and I'm very please with the results. The front seats also need similar work but I'm not sitting on vinyl in the summer (no matter how good they might look) so for now I sewed up my own covers using red beach towels.

Again, superior work. That car just keeps getting nicer and nicer. You even did a hell of a job on the towel seat covers. That's pretty impressive.
