Good Afternoon!

 

Here is another Mustang.  This one a little older, still freaked under the hood.  This customer and I share the same Performance Shop, Colorado Performance Unlimited.  He came to me also wanting to have his Mustang ready for the Rocky Mountain Mustang Round-Up.  The process here would be similar to the Shelby I had just completed, except, I would need to clean up as much of the interior as I could with this one.   

 

A few shots of when it showed up:

I chose to start with the interior first this time, and the sun is washing out some of the work here.  I did have decent vacuum lines...

Yup, bug season.

Car is a garage queen so it wasn't too dirty, although very contaminated near the rear clip.

Lots of marks like these scattered throughout the body.

Hey hey!  A Cowl in good shape!

I removed the Rear Window Louvres and could tell the glass needed some attention from being covered up for so long.

After some brief testing on the hood stripes, it was apparent that only was pass each on the Flex3401VRG of the new Adam's Paint Correction and Polish System would be the answer.

Wheels and Tires came out great!
