Default Got the Vette running and cleaned it up!

Details:

1966 Vette, 4 speed, 1971 Chevelle LS-6 454, 460hp.

Detailed with Zaino: (It was clowdy yesterday so it doesn't look as shiney as it should.)

Maybe this will redeem me for my "yellow" headlight post.

She's a beaut. If you detailed it, you should've hit the wheels too.

Those ralley wheels are only temporary, so I just polished up the trim ring and enter caps. The real wheels for the car were taken off since one had a bad tire. And until the new tires come in and the blue-wall stripe installed thats what its running right now. Those tires are Bridgestone Potenza S1s from the 70's and the wheels have been sitting since then. The wheel itself is just a steel ralley, that I sandblasted and quick sprayed them.
