My restored car lot

[giant056]

I've been doing this on and off, usually when the weather doesn't permit metal detecting or riding my motorcycle. I've got quite a few more that I've fixed up also and some that still need it.

Several months back I crashed my computer so I lost a lot of the old pic's of when I found the stuff but it's all retrievable on the Whites forum, but I'll show a pic of one that I'm going to paint it's just the body I'll show and also I'll include my favorite tools for cleaning hard to get off crud and stuff. These old nail files I've been finding for years and just been tossing them in with the junk but they are super soft and won't scratch stuff, I even use them for polishing up the windshields followed by vigorous rubbing with baking soda. The work great for removing old paint in hard to get spots too.
The Jaguar body I've gotten most of the paint off, it had been painted before and when they did it they even painted the tires and windshield but I've gotten most off but when I'm finished I'll post a pic of it. It might be a while though.

Thanks for sharing the pics- too bad about your computer :angry: I hate it when that happens!

How many cars do you have total? I'm at 16 last time I counted- I LOVE collecting them. And I've forgiven my hubby for throwing one of my first ones in the trash.

I was so mad :ticked: He looked at me like I was :crazy: and said Tana, it was a rusty, dilapitated old car packed full of mud...

I can see his point... lol he understands my passion for them now
