Finally, new skins and clean undercoating Options

[tod914]

After a gargantuan effort of trying various methods to clean the dirt embedded undercoating, finally got it 90% better. Purchased a clothes steamer, a variety of cleaners and and a sonic scrubber . Mucho work, a final coat of Griots rubber cleaner and their tire dressing, very pleasing end result. The Griots actually softened the undercoat abit. Excellent product, non greasy, non glossy, non sticky finish.
Opted for a set of Vredestein 195 65 sportrac 3's. One of the few performance tires available it seems. Can't wait to take it for a spin. I'll post some daylight shots later.

Steve, spoke with both Dwayne and the owner, whom you dealt with. Both very forth comming on the condition of the car. The owner had very limited time to talk. 99% of the time I was cooresponding with Dwayne. He was very helpfull and easy to deal with. I figured if it was 80% of what it was in 1998, it would still be a very nice car. The owner had an incredably beautiful 76? in orange with tartan seats. I believe one panel was sprayed so he sold it to one of the members here in Germany just prior to this 73 purchase. Museum qualitly cars with 100% documentation just don't come up for sale. I'm under the impression he gave up on his quest. I'm still plugging away (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) I told him about the silver 74 I had at the time. But judgeing by what he was looking for, I didn't think it would suite him either being it had an exterior respray. I think as time passes, some of these one owner gems will start to pop up.
