    I was invited out to the Southamptons, NY to do my customer's collection or at least most of it.

    We got there a little after 9am and finished at about 7pm. Long day not including the 2 hour drive one way, but this was well worth it!:agree:

    All cars were full exterior and full interior. These cars were pretty much in perfect condition except for the Cobra and the Jag XK150 (his daily when he out in Southamptons)

    55 Corvette
    Jaguar XK120
    Jaguar XK150
    Shelby Cobra (base)

    Your the second person to say that, interesting...hey can you get refils for Mystery? Rumor has it that if you purhcase it x amount will get you a refil? Is that true?
    Don't mean to put you on the spot buddy but just curious if it's a touchy situation you can ignore the question.

    Nice work.

    I love the fact that you didnt use a high gloss tire shine and instead just showed a clean black tire.

    tire shine on old cars is really iffy. I think they look better with the matte tire personally.
