Yesterday cleaned and polished front and rear bumpers, and cleaned/polished/waxed SSI's. Today cleaned and detailed the exterior body. Tomorrow I will clean and treat vinyl top and interior vinyl and she'll be ready for another show. Had her out to 13 events already this season. Love car season!

Today I dropped a 394 into my 1964 Dynamic 88, and hooked up the exhaust. What's up with the spacers and springs? Serious hassle, hooking up the passenger side exhaust!

At least it's tight..

When I lived in illannoy we had a show every day of the week. I had a few cars then and would go to nearly all the shows. I would bring my riding buddy Tobin. He is featured in a yootoob vid. Loved that dude. Now I'm residing in Indiana. While I enjoy this area, it isn't at the income level of illannoy. If your car doesn't have rust and has a good muffler, you got it going on.

Your car is absolutely beautiful!

Tobin on yootoob.

Tobin was a Trooper with Dad putting the pedal to the metal! Our pets are much better than we are. Thanks for the compliment on my car, she's a dandy and I really enjoy the time spent keeping her looking good.

Went on a sixty mile drive! Just jumped in my 1970 442 and away we went. Got all kinds of rubber neckers and thumbs up.

Wanted to follow-up from my post yesterday. Got out to the garage early before it gets too warm. Cleaned and treated the vinyl roof with 303 Aerospace Protectant. Then treated the dash pad, door panels, and upholstery with 303 also. I love the 303 Aerospace Protectant for vinyl for 2 reasons, it's advertised to have alot of UV protection, and when applied as directed does not leave a greasy film like some other products.

Thanks! Ya, it's good stuff! I see you have a black vinyl roof on your '68. I'd suggest you give it a try. I also forgot to mention it lasts quite awhile between applications, even the roof that is subjected to the sun and dust/dirt.

Spent the better part of the week doing it, I installed new bezels and repainted the black on the trunk trim piece. Also had to redo the black and silver on the new bezels. I feel like it turned out pretty good.

James - The bezels look perfect! I never get tired of seeing pics of your car, or your work.
