Pics/before & after paint correction

Looks good I have seen some worse cars not F-car's with under 11k had to wet sand certain sports and compound came out looking like glass. How did that person manage to get tar on a 11k Fcar

 

Gary. I have a question for you. My car is an '81 Ferrari 308GTSi. It was a very low mileage car when I bought it almost 4 years ago. Have since put on about 7500 Miles.

Anyway. I'm getting a few spots on the paint that are "Checking",or "Crazing". Not really bad...But,I,notice it...

Can this be "Wetsanded" out,and save the original Paint? Maybe,having the whole car gently Wetsanded,then shot with a few coats of Clear?

I really want to avoid painting the car. Just because I want it to remain original. But,if it ends up that I have to in a few years,then so be it.

 

Hi Gary,

Did this car come to you from Fox Valley Motors? My friend just traded in his black 360 last week for a silver 360 spyder at Fox Valley. He had about 11,000 miles, I'm wondering if this was his car...

 

Hey Sean, yep, that's the car. I'm sure you'll see Carl cruising in the spider soon! Gary sometimes over-exaggerates when he says a car was abused. You and I both know Carl, and he is the LAST person who would abuse a car. He USES them, so they are going to get some stone chips. Nothing that can't be touched-up.

 

Hey Mike!

You must remember Carl and I share our studio space, so I see it every day, and have already been for a ride in it, although he is a conservative driver... He says once he gets his full insurance I'll be able to take it for a spin. Any anniversary Countach's come your way yet? By the way, don't you live in Homer Glen? I just moved there, we should get together.

 

Hi Sean, How did you like the Spider? I moved to Oak Brook about 6 months ago, but my parents still live in Homer Glen near 143rd and Lemont Road. They bought a condo downtown that will be done early next year, so they are going to sell the house, so if you know anybody who wants a 10-car garage, here are some pix. www.RedlineRPM.com/gallery/house Next time I'm out there, I'll let you know, and maybe we can meet. There is a great little place in downtown Lemont called Dilons, that has some great food.

 

Don't you guys start talking about Countach's now.... Before i got my 328, the Countach was #2 on my list.

In fact, last year when i bought my 328 down in Florida, i spent about 8 months looking for her, a black 328. when i found her in florida, i had the typical PPI done and everything. I got some airfare and flew down there to see her. Now remember, a black Countach was always on my mind.

So, when i got down to Florida to see my new 328 baby, i walked into thier garage and guess what was sitting right next to her?? HAH! A friken Black Countach in awesome condition. I thought i was going to cry......

So, you guys don't want to see me cry again.... Michael, we don't want to know if you come across a black Countach... HAH!...

Sorry for stealing this thread.....

 

The spyder is of course beautiful. I like the silver on it better than my Porsche Boxster S. Seeing those two next to each other makes the Porsche look like a bug. I drove his Modena so I know what it can do, can't wait to drive the spyder. Anyway, we are talking about a red anniversay countach, not black. My 308 is black and is bad ass looking, but the countach must be in red.
