Well, I got a new toy last week. First off, the truck isn't going anywhere. I'll do a few more mods to the truck (tint, lowering, maybe a small cam) and leave it alone. The camaro will be my daily driver/beater for the most part. I just don't care about it as much as I do my truck, lol.

It's got about 60k on it and for the most part it's what I've wanted since I was 17, it's a 6-speed with no options (so it's light!). It already has Boyd 18s, full length headers, a nasty sounding cam and true dual exhaust with an x-pipe and Dynomax bullets with tailpipes ran out the back under the axle. It was cheap as **** since it has a lot of little **** wrong with it. The syncros are out in 3rd and 4th gear and it probably has a spun bearing. On to the pictures:

That's not purple......its maroon!


Headlights are yellow and hazy. Nothing some wetsanding and compounding won't fix.


Wheels are oxidized as hell and stained from wheel cleaners.


I've got about 3 hours of polishing into this one. Still needs some more love.


Paint is swirled to hell. Nothing a few hours of compounding and polishing won't fix.




Plans are to fix the tranny, rebuild the engine, tune it, and beat the **** out of it!

I want one LOL, nice car man you ever used a powerball to polish wheels I heard they work well.

 

I use a powerball on my rims, but there are alot of places that the powerball cant get, and I prefer a finer finish than what the powerball gives
This is the guide i follow for the most part.
