Default Some Before and Afters of my "NEW" Firebird...yeah, another one!

I picked this car up a little bit ago...its a 99 Formula M6. It was in need of some TLC but was a good solid car with a lot of potential. I have always liked the Formulas and being a six speed car I had to get it even if it was in God awful NBM (just a jab at BDowning...nobody else take it personal!!! )

Here are some "BEFORE" pics:






And some "AFTER" pics:

I blew it off real well with compressed air then cleaned it with Simple Green then sprayed it with CD2 Engine detailer...its great stuff and works GREAT!!! I have used it on a lot of different cars with great results.
