*GOOD GUY ALERT* --> GTA in DETAIL! **BIG PICS**

Hey Guys!

I thought I would take some time to post a HUGE thanks to Kevin Hamill from GTA in Detail! All I have to say is Kevin ROCKS!!!!! In early June I read some posts on this board about a guy in Toronto who was detailing G35's. I didn't make it to the workshop but from looking at his website and portfolio it looked like he knew what he was doing! So I called him and was pleasantly surprised how excited, knowledgeable and patient he was with me and my 1000 questions.

Anyhow, after a couple of calls and emails we decided to give my freshly painted, 1970 AAR Cuda a polish, sealant and wax job!!! This morning Kevin came up with his G35 and went to town. Immediately he started with a rinseless wash, followed by a porter cable polish, quality sealant and a slick wax job. My concerns about getting the car sealed was for 2 reasons...

1) The car was painted about 2 months ago and the virgin paint was starting to get covered in dust, it's unprotected and I didn't want to leave the paint with nothing on it.

2) I could see minor swirls in the paint even though nothing has ever touched the paint with the exception of my California Duster.

Well, it's obvious the California Duster can cause very light scratches in soft paint that was still curing. However, it was no match for Kevin, he got rid of them and the car looks insane and like a sheet of glass!! Anyhow, I really want to thank G35driver.com for getting me in touch with Kevin! It's not hard to tell he is an awesome guy, total car nut like me and an absolute paint god!!!!!

If you have a car that's looking like crap or just want someone to raise the bar on your shine Kevin is the MAN!!! As you can tell I am tickled pink about the job he did! His rates are ridiculously low for the quality of service he provides! The information I learned today is well worth his rate alone!!!

Thanks again Kevin for coming out and making my Cuda look even better than it already was!! You da man!!!!

Chris

I guess I'll be the first to make the joke about the low profile tires. You might want to drop that thing too, it rides high!

Chris, it was awesome meeting you today. I'm glad I could be a part of the restoration project, the car is crazy awesome. I'll post some of my pics presently!

Everyone beat me to my comments. Too Chris.
Please put me on the list for a ride as well. I'll even sit in the back seat, if you put one in.
