Thing of beauty?

3/11/18 Washing the car was futile because it was covered with years of dust, debris and chemicals.  I tried everything - even lacquer thinner on the windows and NOTHING would cut through the thick layer of grime.  I found the only way was to cut through was with some polishing compound.  After a day+ worth of work, the car shines once again! FYI, I am NOT an autobody guy so the agreement was that I work with what I was given.  There are a couple small dents, the rear bumper has some damage, the grill is missing and the hood needs paint.  These are all known issues that Dan will address once he takes delivery of his car. To finish off the evening I washed the inner door skins.  Everything was covered with dust so I figured I might as well start with a clean slate.  No pictures to share but just know that it was one more more task I can check of my to-do list!!
