Well ladies/gentlemen its been a while since I had some work. I relocated to Washington state and havent had any business. My wifes co-worker reached out to me and wanted it cleaned up so he could put it in storage. I had always heard the rumors about corvettes having hard clear coats. So I had it bad all the way around. The owner was thoroughly impressed. Please critique

Nice job, its a shame that it looked like he picked it up in the rain

I think the problem with the pictures has to do with where you are hosting them, iirc they block certain sites imgur being one of them...
