Finally here this morning...drove it and I really like this car, very different that the 997TT, not better or worse, just whole different feel. These cars are alot of fun and I think Chevy did a nice job on this one...more comparisons coming soon ...

I did. Since I have purchased the car, Dave was initially on vacation. Then, each time I have called with questions over the last couple weeks he has not been there, his boss always got on the phone. His name is also no longer the contact person on the Corvette Forum for Kerbeck's. Hope he is okay, he was a good guy to work with when I bought the car...

I started at 7:00 AM yesterday morning and it took about 7 hours. Process:

1. Wheels flooded with water, then Zymol Wheel Cleaner, wash wheels
2. Wash car with lamb wool mit, Zymol Clear, CR Spotless Water Dionizer system,
3. Clay
4. Optima Polish (non-abrasive) with DA Porter Cable Orbital, wipe with Zymol Microfiber towels.
5. Hand wax using Zymol Concours with fingers and palm of hand, buff with MF.
6. Spray on Zymol Wheel wax and allow to dry, then buff.

You need patience, but it is worth it when it is complete.

I am 50+ and working on the cars is a labor of love. For me, it beats sitting around the couch with a bag of chips watching a game.....

Mastiffdog,
If I ever come back in a second life as a car I want to be a Mastiffdog car. Just think I would live in the finest, cleanest garage, and get bathed every week. Ahh the life
