Had Steven over at Solid Motorsports do a restoration job for my gel coat, and he removed the original decal. The second picture is was taken by Steven using my boat's gel coat as a mirror. It is clear and reflective enough to show that crystal clear picture of him when he doesn't use the flash.

AWESOME!! If you don't mind sharing, how much did you pay for this? I'd love to get a pro to tackle mine but haven't found anyone close with the experience to trust them to do it right.

$700

She wasn't in horrendous shape, yet, but there were some spots on her that were beginning to go white. No more of that!

Amazing how much it can be shined up, huh?

Wow, she really cleaned up nice! I'm done sanding/polishing/touching-up mine (except for crawling underneath & giving the running surface the once over). My hands/arms/shoulders say I shoulda sprang for a pro like you - results are awesome.

I appreciate all the comments guys.

Jzelt, there isn't enough money in the world to polish up the owner. ;)

I'm not too worried about the trailer, yet. It has a new hydraulic coupler on it, and I just recently redid all the wiring and lights. I just need it functional, which means new tires and bearing buddies, soon.

One more of the new custom-made-to-match 37 gallon fuel tank.

I'll probably make an appearance for a day or two. Just trying to get all my ducks in a row. Discretionary funds are running low right now. I have three out of town trips scheduled this summer, and it seems like repairs and insurance for the boat, bike and truck are all hitting at the same time.

I hear ya there. We have other things planned as well and it was tight fitting it in, but we managed to budget it OK. Hope to see ya...would be fun meeting up. I'm definitely hoping we end up with a few old school Supras there.
