It wasn’t a good time for me financially so I passed.

Next time I found it on July 24, 1991 it was sitting outside uncovered for several years which took its toll on the paint.
This time the purchase was made.

When I used to take it to classic car events occasionally someone would walk up and say you should paint this car.
I was polite but short with them as they obviously don’t understand a Survivor car.
As years go by I appreciate the patina this car offers every time I uncover it.
Someday when I’m gone the next owner can have it sprayed if they wish.

Try using Wesleys Bleach White whitewall cleaner. I did that to the badly stained original white paint on my recently purchased '72 T/A and it worked great.

The hood of my '66 Corvette was badly stained. Dirt was etched into the paint. I used carb cleaner on that one.... just gotta be careful..

Spray on wire wheel cleaner works pretty good for taking rust off paint too.
