I definitely do not use a powerbuffer at all for finishing buffing. I hand apply and handwipe/buff all of it. It's extremely relaxing, and as many wrenches as I've turned on that car and in general, it's a nice workout for the carpals :)

A dream car does not have to be beautiful in the eyes of others, it's not theirs.

Oh man!! Ive always wanted one in that color scheme!! Its rare to find one with the black interior...infact i think 82 or 83 was the last year it was available. I soooo wish I could find one!!


by the way...Have you seen that burgundy beauty for sale at "Trovit motors in milbanks SD." Its on the web. Its a coupe and they want almost 11,000 dollars for it! Id probably buy it if I was a bit richer ;D
