A couple of questions for the experts!!
Back story: My '66 GTO restoration was done in 2011-2012 Paint is (LL) Mariner Turquoise. Base coat/clear coat! It's not a complete numbers matching car, as it has a 428, and a Tremec 5 spd in it. Has a '66 tri-power set-up, 067 heads, True "HO" exhaust manifolds. No rust, and interior looks as if new. Even the 4-way flasher system works. PHS documentation & car are close to accurate, but slight differences, as it was a 4bbl car, 4 spd, car when new. In the garage under the artificial light, I see some very slight looking scratches, not swirl marks. Ever so slight. Outside in sunlight, it glistens, and I don't see them. The marks seem to bother me mentally, as I know they are there. So here go the questions: 1) Should I leave as is, and polish it with a high grade polish? 2) Have it lightly buffed, and polished? 3) Same as #2, but have it ceramic coated? 4) Which do you think will give the most shine & lustre? 5) I'm not going to spend $25,000-$30,000 to get it repainted! 6) As an older, but almost an immaculate restoration, just leave it, drive it, and enjoy it?? As always, Thanks for your help and input! Allan Bishop |
