Went out to the Shelby digs today on my day off in Vegas.
Not a lot of cars in the museum but the ones there are the shizznat.
Most of all, the number one Cobra

They submitted a bid to compound, polish, and wax our boat but it was a bit high. After a bit of back and forth, they came down in price. However, ultimately, we ended up doing the work ourselves. It was a lot of work, but I would do it again.

Again - I never used American RV Care - just have their card.

Thanks David. Actually called them today, prices were decent, but after telling them it was fiberglass sides, and NOT painted, I asked them what wax they use..... Meguiar's #26, which is an automotive wax. I want someone who uses a polish/wax that is made for fiberglass. I ended up ordering some more of the stuff I used the last time plus some of the cleaner. I'm going to just do it myself in sections.

I don't think I would give him $65 for it, much less what he really wants.

Kinda' ugly to my eyes.

Guy was a John Deere fan. Looks like a home-made plow mount up front.

IIRC the last Cobra that was Mr. Shelby's daily driver went for about 6 million.
Number one would probably be stratospheric.

Probably could talk him down quite a bit.
