1969 Super Bee makeover!


Recommended Posts

Had my neighbor pop over the garage this morning to have me help him out with an oil change and to fix his washer squirters...well that all went well and then it turned into a detail day!

 

All numbers matching original 1969 Super Bee.  383 4 barrel, automatic. 

 

Rinseless washed, clayed, polished/compounded and then Americana'd.   I broke out the flex and Griot's 6" and went to town.  I applied the Americana by machine.   I figured an American muscle classic like this deserved some Americana!!!

 

Came out really well IMO.  Original single stage paint.  Had quite a few defects, swirls, and scratches in it. 

 

On to the pics!

Pictures don't do it justice.  The paint came out really well.  Super slick and it looks wet!  They way it should look/feel!  Yeah!

 

Vehicle is for sale if anyone is interested.  PM me for details...

Looks good.

 

I'm afraid of single stage paint. My dad's nova has single stage paint and there are so many defects I want to remove, but I'm not sure how thick the paint is. I attempted to polish a section with the Cyclo and PFP and just did not feel comfortable at all.
