Beautiful Bodies Are Our Business
Here is a 1970 Ford Mustang Mach 1in the Restoration Process.  We began by removing all the chrome, rubber, glass and interior from the vehicle before stripping the
paint. Next we begin removing the paint from the vehicle, main body, jambs, etc.  The entire vehicle will be without paint.
 As you can see the vehicle is NOW coming
along and we are able to see all the imperfections that were HIDDEN by the paint.  
Once the 1st set of Bodywork and Imperfections have been preformed, the vehicle is primed with a rust protection and, a tracer coat is applied and sanded to ensure a
straight body line. Additional replacement panels are pre-fit to the vehicle and gaps and alignment are check.  The vehicle is then primed again and a tracer coat
reapplied, it receives a final blocking and the doors, hood and fenders are removed from the vehicle.  Everything is washed, masked and prepped for refinish.
Check each panel for alignment and gap to assure a straight body line.  Clean and Wash Vehicle and Prep the vehicle for refinish. Seal Vehicle, Apply Five (5) Coats of Base
and Six (6) Coats of Glamour Clear.   The first stage is to apply color to the jambs and edges of the car and underneith/back of the parts.          
We then Wet Sand and Block the entire vehicle, using a (3) stage Buffing Process.  Stage One: Compound Buff….Buff vehicle with course compound to remove wet sand
scratches.  Stage Two:  Polish Buff….Buff Vehicle with Mid Cut Compound to remove Compound Swirls.  Stage Three (Final) …. Buff Vehicle with very fine Polish to remove all
swirls, and bring to a Lustrous Finish.  After all of that is completed we finish re-assembling the vehicle wash and Detail interior and Prep for Delivery.
Re-install fender, hood, doors, and trunk lid.  Check each panel for alignment and gap to assure a straight body line.  Clean and Wash Vehicle and Prep the vehicle for refinish.
Seal Vehicle, Apply Five (5) Coats of Base and Six (6) Coats of Glamour Clear to the entire vehicle.
With the vehicle in the re-assembly stage we begin prepping it for the Motor, Transmission and wiring to be re-installed.
