At the beginning of the season I thought I would have a bunch of lifted trucks to do....well... I have done 2 and may have more coming.
But
Chargers seem to be where it's at this year. I posted a thread on the 2013 V6, I did the white Daytona from last year again ( worked on it on a Saturday night, so not many pictures were taken ).
Enter the Bullitt-esque patient for Sunday. The car needs some wiring finished, interior panels etc.... but it runs and drives. I believe 440 and automatic.
It did not start yesterday, flexible fuel hose found to be the culprit late last night.
Anyways on to the goods.
Wash: Wolfgang Uber Rinseless Wash
Clay: Nanoskin handy towel + nanoskin glide
Vinyl top cleaned with Meguiar's #39 H.D. vinyl cleaner
Vinyl top received 303 Aerospace Protectant
Bumpers, gas filler and trim was wiped down with Flitz Metal Polish via an applicator sponge
Wheels and tires were done by me previously in June. Unfortunately the chrome is flaking a bit on the spokes but they look decent for now.
The paint was rough under the lights.
Rupes LHR 15 Mark II + Lake Country MF cutting pads + Menzerna FG400
Second step was done with Blackfire One Step via LC Orange polishing pad.
Lastly, Final wipe down with Bead Maker.
The paint is about 80-85% better. Not perfect, it has some deeper scratches and small paint chips. Current fenders are fiberglass but steel fenders are in hand for possible paint and installation.
Upon arrival, :
Here is a MF towel after 1 pass over the trunk:
Soft brush to help clean the top:
