67 Coronet Stripe

Prayers sent.

Your guy is from your bodyshop?

No, body shop closed about 5 years ago. I have used this guy for several World of Wheels shows. The best I know of at detailing and show preparing cars.

Thanks to everyone for the help. I will see what my guy can do to get all the unnecessary stripes removed. You all say a little prayer, as I found out this afternoon that although the paint is almost perfect on this car except for the extra pin stripes, it is thin. 3 to 4 mils, per his gauge.

My detail guy says he's found the correct formula to remove the unwanted stripes, but it's going to be slow and costly. I knew this without asking, before I loaded the car up and took it 100 plus miles to have a paint correction done. I'm just thankful they can be removed. I made the decision to leave the side stripes alone as they have only been altered slightly on the front and rear. I expect the car back the middle of next week. Pictures will come then.

Unnecessary stripes are removed. Full detail and ceramic coated.

Engine compartment cleaned up much better than I expected.

..and the bill, drum roll !!! lol

Expensive to me, $2400 for everything. Still a lot cheaper than a paint job, even at cost. No way am I going to paint a survivor car, unless it's due for a total restoration. It looks almost factory fresh to me. I stopped one time on the way back and it drew a crowd. One person said great restoration to which I replied, no original. His answer was BS.

Thanks Jerry, she's a gorgeous Survivor ! Considering that it cost me 5 grand Cdn to have my guy cut and polish out his shitty clear coat job on my Bird, that should have been free... your paint correction was cheap !

that's one good looking B body !!!!

That looks SO much better. I've never been a fan of the "let's go to town with the pinstripes everywhere" look. A few neatly coinciding with body lines is perfect.
