    Sweet 57 Belair Coupe

    This 57 Chevy Belair Coupe (pillarless) was such a privilege to work on. This car was completly detailed on the outside including all chrome, window, paint, etc, etc. It took 2 days to polish. This bellair was being prepaired for our Beach Hop, which is a five day gathering of classic cars, hot rods, etc. At the beach. There would probably be more than 1000 cars there. This is a show we would love to go to and do some advertising however work and kid commitments prevents this. Hopefully the car will win best Chevey...

    Will let you know.

    Products used::: M83, M80, Nxt Wax, chrome polish, and plenty of elbow grease.

      As you can tell from my avatar, I'm a sucker for red 57's (see my gallery). And Smurf, this one is a fine example. You did an outstanding job and the owner also did a super resto. Great work and good luck.

        You did a great job! This just goes to show that a car can look outstanding from a distance, but still doesn't have a show car finish. Way to bring it out!

                  Fantastic!

                  Brings back a memory or two. My stepfather had one of that same exact color scheme, inside out, except it was a convertible. That was in 1966, before they were classic. He refurbed the interior, which had been spray painted black--seats and all. He also replaced the rag top and rebuilt the engine after a cracked flywheel. After all that, he sold it to a neighbor and their teenage daughter got t-boned in it and it was totaled.

                      Thank you to all for your wonderful comments
                      If you noticed there are no exhaust pipes out the back
                      They finish half way down the car and face to the ground
                      The tone that it give out is unreal it has the sound of a super charger

                        That would be fun to hear! It came out just beautifully. Sorry you can't attend the show, but hopefully they'll bring back some good news for you!
