Default Re: 57 Nomad Project.........

Update.........After getting the Lift gate straightened by Mike at Madmooks and getting it installed........The next thing I was concerned with was the 25 year paint on parts of the car that were untouched by Pulera's.......the paint was in good shape, but had Orange Peel and areas of shrinkage in it......and I didn't want to open a can of Worms, but.......After thinking about it......I got in touch with Joe Miller who wet sanded and buffed the 66 Biscayne to perfection 10 years ago.....Joe started his own Restoration shop in Forreston, Il (J. Miller Restorations).......Anyhow, Joe said he could get it in and two weeks later I dropped it off....Joe was concerned about some of the shrinkage areas and obviously about how much paint was on the car for wet sanding.........8 days later I get a call saying that the car was finished.....(no paint jail here)........Joe ended up having to repaint the roof, and then continued with the wet sanding and buffing..........All I can say is that Joe is a Miracle worker........Check out the pictures........all the area's of shrinkage are finished and buffed to perfection......absolutely no imperfections at all......Crazy!!!!.......We will be shipping the car out to Phoenix in early May for the Spring Good-Guys Hall of Fame Road Tour that starts there.......I'm really starting to like this car.....LOL
