    n737nc, you make me sick!! It's people like you that make people like me drool. You owe me a new keyboard, by the way.
    A common mistake that people make when trying to design something completely foolproof is to underestimate the ingenuity of complete fools.

      That is quite a collection! I wonder if the white 68 Mustang Fastback is one of the first 50 428 cu inch cars that Ford released to drag racers.

        I don't know. But I will ask the next time I'm out there, probably Tuesday or so.

          N737 you are one lucky man! i had a guy that has some old rare cars that i was going to detail( but nothing like whats fell in your hands) anyways lets just say his brother was building him up just a tad!! he did have a couple nice old cars though, but he didn't like my $250 price for one of the cars, even though he was really up for me doing the job after the test spot,but i think he was a detail center $50 to $75 in&out quicky. anyway congrads.

            Sweet collection, no doubt. I might need to make another trip to Dallas to help you out there. I'll bring my PC and all my goodies too. Have fun and take pictures.

              In all honesty, I really do need some help right now. I did hire a young man, but he bolted on me after only a couple of days. I guess he didn't like cleaning cars, plus I think it would have been a long time before I trusted him with any kind of machine on one of these classics.

              If your interested in coming out and helping me knock out a few of these beauties, PM me and lets talk about it. I also have another client with a collection just about as large as this one. He is the one I did the 69 Camaro makeover for.

                Wow! That sounds like a dream come true. Unfortunately, I won't be able to take anytime off work soon. I just started a new job at the end of last month and I don't want to risk asking time off right now. I don't know how long you will be working for this client, but on June 16th I'm coming to Dallas to see a friend and attend his wedding party. Maybe we can meet up if possible and discuss this a little more. I might be able to make a few weekend trips to help out. I just need to make sure I don't have to work. I would love to put a shine on some of those classics. My brothers would be really jealous, especially the Mustangs. LOL

                  Wow! Nice collection! We dont get to see such cars in Singapore.
                  Have to pay about US $10k just to get a permit to keep a car for only
                  10 yrs.

                  The tax of the cars alone can bankrupt you. (We're taxed according to engine capacity)

                  Yes, hope to see the 'before' and 'after' photos of the cars.

                  Congrats!
