CrawlinTBSS Posted June 19, 2011 Share Posted June 19, 2011 (edited) Kind of nervous but not to worried. About 6 years ago my buddy and his dad purchased a Factory 5 Cobra replica kit. we built it all our selves with a bunch of friends, started with a stock 302 and now its a fully built dart block, 331ci , with a Vortech V2 SPL S-trim. Its in dire need of a detail. my buddy actually had someone just detail it, and i dont think they machine corrected it. still MANY swirls and light scratches. So i offered him a detail for me to redo it with only the best stuff, Adam's! I think im going to 2 bucket wash it, clay, SHR, FMP, MSW, BG, Americana the whole car. I dont like whatever someone did to the whole thing. Hes happy with it, but I think I can make this whip really shine! Heres some pics. Hoping to start it this week sometime. More to come!

LDM Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 Looks like a fun project. I live maybe 30 minutes from Factory Five, with only one town between mine and Wareham, and I keep meaning to go on a factory tour but I've never made it up there. One of these days...

Synergy Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 Just detailed on of these a few weeks ago. It was a good experience, but make sure to be extra careful because it is a fragile car. Take your time and you will do fine! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SIDetailing Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 I do a handful of replicas monthly. They are awesome cars. I have the pleasure to detail an original Shelby as well. Adams does justice when detailing them. Enjoy working on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
