Meanwhile the cars are anxiously waiting.
They are taking a beating 24/7 from being outside..
Maple trees are not kind to vinyl tops...

Frankie was painted in the late 80's/ early 90's when base/ clear technology was in its infancy.
When we bought him some of the clear was peeling.
Not as obvious 5 years ago, but now worse than ever..

The Boab has developed 2 spots of bubbling..left side below rear window, and above left rear fender skirt.
Nothing I can do about that as rain water drains in these areas.
You all know the car was prepped to death, epoxied primed and all that but rust never sleeps.

Looking great. Car covers would help some towards protecting them.

Ouch! The one above the wheel lip scares me because I won’t be convinced that it’s not coming through from the inside.
