I was invited out to the Southamptons, NY to do my customer's collection or at least most of it.

We got there a little after 9am and finished at about 7pm. Long day not including the 2 hour drive one way, but this was well worth it! :agree:

All cars were full exterior and full interior. These cars were pretty much in perfect condition except for the Cobra and the Jag XK150 (his daily when he out in Southamptons)

55 Corvette
Jaguar XK120
Jaguar XK150
Shelby Cobra (base)

Mystery:



The garages 6 total



Sorry we were so busy we really didn't take many pictures.

55 Vette:
Wash with P21S Bodyworks Shampoo
Wheels with P21S Wheel Cleaner gel
Tires cleaned up iwht P21S Autowash
Tires dressed with Adam's VRT
Undercarriage cleaned up with Adam's Undercarriage Spray
Swissvax Paint Rubber to get rid of the contaminants
Swissvax Cleaner Fluid
Swissvax Mystery for the final step

Customer was concerned about the interior.
Vacuumed
Leather Master Strong Cleaner
Leather Master Vital
Interior wiped down with Einszett Cockpit
----
Windows cleaned with Adam's glass cleaner
Windows polished with Einszett Glas Polish
----
All metal polished up with Adam's Metal 1 and 2
Wheels polished up as well with Adam's Metal 1 and 2.

The car:

Final touches:
