Sweet...  gotta love having a classic coach like these that are worth the investment.

  Now,  Dani get those wheels polished. There is a shop south of Phoenix (Eloy) that will do it for $5.00 a wheel. Mirrors are $10.00. 
Holy cow $5 per wheel, that's amazing nowadays, did you drop a zero

Here you go Dani.  You can down load it for your collection.

We need before and after the beauty pageant 
....well David, the "before" is the pic that's still on my avatar, got to figure out a way to get the new one on there...my computer's not taking the pics to forward or upload or whatever, in order to do that so am depending on the kindness of friends like Stump & Andy who have graciously put the pics up for me....someday maybe I'll get a technological brain cell or two....if I can get my computer guru to upload it onto the avatar next time he fixes me up, will get that done....

PS am really enjoying staying in the park that has a 10 year rule, ha ha...they rolled out the red carpet when I drove up...  8)

Phred.  Nope, didn't drop a zero!  Got all 4 wheels and both mirrors done for 40 bucks. They wax them for that price as well. The guy had a constant flow of trucks comin in for polishing too.

I've polished mine, and I sure would have charged myself more than five bucks to do it !  ^.^d  I'd think they use a buffer? Would like to see a pic of them in action.  :dance:

A fresher pic: even when I changed cleaner brands, I could not get some of the salt spots out. Prolly a buffer would do it, but I'm happy with this, tho I'll be in Phoenix in Sept. and mite check the '5 buck boys'. BTW, this is what you have to use if losing the 'shiny wheel contest'.  ^.^d

The shop is M&M truck polishing in Eloy Arizona. Antonio @ 520-483-557.  I just called and he didn't pick up    But he did call back  in about 2 min.  I'll try posting a pic.

If you're going south on I-10 out of Phoenix, it's just out of Casa Grande. Nice for us when we go back to Ajo in the fall.

Eloy must be the polishing place - I got our wheels done there on the way to "Q" this past January.  Different outfit - we used Flash Truck Polishing one block north of I-10 at exit #203 (across the street from Super 8 motel).  They did 4 wheels and the mirrors for $40.  Took about 40 minutes - looked good to me.
