with those tires & wheels
geez, what a fine looking piece of machinery!
Thanks!
Got the lights reassembled, and connected. Then did more cleaning. I can't figure out how all the very light mist got into the interior glass! I had to use some thinner to remove the film off all the inside glass, and a little outside. Then window cleaner inside and out also. Upholstery and carpet looked fine, just the glass. Weird.
Went out and bought a new random orbital polisher, compound, and some wet/dry 1500 grit paper. I wont go over the whole car wet sanding, but need to hit some trouble spots. Then I'll buff the whole car out with compound, and later polish and wax it too once it's got a month or so to cure.
The new polisher is a Torqx brand, six speeds from a few hundred rpm's to 6400 rpm's. Seems like a well made tool.

Yes, I'm planning on that pinstripe. But thinking the inside of that bodyline is wide enough for two thin pinstripes, and hoping to have one red, and one black in there if the pinstriper feels it can be done easily. Probably some other work in a few areas too just to break up all the white, and lack of chrome trim.
