TTQ B4U Posted November 18, 2016 Report Share Posted November 18, 2016 (edited) David brought his little gem my way to be brought back to life. This one will definitely be a challenging one. Looking at an Elite Enhancement package for this one: Stay tuned for updates!

TTQ B4U Posted November 19, 2016 Author Report Share Posted November 19, 2016 (edited) Can't wait to see the after shots Tim! Was dark when I finished so real after shots will have to wait until the weather clears up Monday or Tuesday. I have the car through Wednesday so I should be able to get some. It was hammered pretty badly so I took it to Microfiber for correction. Worked out really well with simple 2-step. David stopped by while I was working on it and I floored him by showing the roof which came out nearly perfect. All in all not bad for 21+ year old paint. I'll finish up wiping it down and dressing all the trim in the morning. Another couple before shots showing how bad it was http://i1379.photobucket.com/albums/ah133/PDQS4/Misc%20Detailing/20161118_110101%20web_zpseo3uivsv.jpg http://i1379.photobucket.com/albums/ah133/PDQS4/Misc%20Detailing/20161118_110211%20web_zpss0kfqmji.jpg http://i1379.photobucket.com/albums/ah133/PDQS4/Misc%20Detailing/20161117_2339381_zpsn0n0otpt.jpg After Clean up: http://i1379.photobucket.com/albums/ah133/PDQS4/Misc%20Detailing/20161118_210435%20web_zpsp03atstz.jpg Reflection off roof http://i1379.photobucket.com/albums/ah133/PDQS4/Misc%20Detailing/20161118_210415%20web_zpsz7eqnijq.jpg http://i1379.photobucket.com/albums/ah133/PDQS4/Misc%20Detailing/20161118_210349%20web_zpswysrnxx4.jpg Hood http://i1379.photobucket.com/albums/ah133/PDQS4/Misc%20Detailing/20161118_210301%20web_zpsbvxcrxbs.jpg http://i1379.photobucket.com/albums/ah133/PDQS4/Misc%20Detailing/20161118_210224%20web_zps1vecrgo6.jpgSave Save Save Edited November 19, 2016 by TTQ B4U Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forrest Gump 9 Posted November 19, 2016 Report Share Posted November 19, 2016 Lol, I'm giggling like a little school girl. I thought for sure I'll have to repaint the car Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TTQ B4U Posted November 19, 2016 Author Report Share Posted November 19, 2016 Lol, I'm giggling like a little school girl. I thought for sure I'll have to repaint the car I've made the decision that I'm going to steal this car. It's locked in my garage and I'm not letting it out. Just needs the windows re-tinted and the interior cleaned up (actually it's not that bad). Next year we can simple work to correct the Random Imperfections, Defects & Scratches aka RIDS and perhaps refine the polish where needed. Inside the doors is clean but could also use a detailing. All minor stuff. Otherwise this car is sweet and brings me back to the 90's. The wheels are 100% perfect. Love them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TTQ B4U Posted November 20, 2016 Author Report Share Posted November 20, 2016 Interesting story on the car. Only 200 copies brought to the US in 3 years of production and the first to be sold under the AMG Nameplate. Very cool. http://www.topspeed.com/cars/mercedes/1995-mercedes-c36-amg-ar107362.html#main Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Alex- Posted November 20, 2016 Report Share Posted November 20, 2016 Badass car and a great job bringing it back to life. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TTQ B4U Posted November 25, 2016 Author Report Share Posted November 25, 2016 Sadly I have to return this car. Bringing it down to Cars and Coffee in the morning to meet up with David. I've had so many neighbors stop by asking it if was my new car as it's in my garage next to mine and the van has been sitting out. Definitely pretty cool.
