Washed and half properly cleaned it.. Paints good so I skipped mildly abrasive polish and the da polisher. Went straight to mother's carnauba wax. Did tyres with meguiars (the purple stuff) and done the wheels with poorboys wheel sealer. Wheels could use polishing but I'll do that with the cordless drill another day. Also went over the dash and interior trim with some turtle wax spray stuff and cleaned around the engine bay.

Will have to take some proper pics of the car at some stage.

I too polished the stew out of the GN todat and waxed it using the black Turtle Wax stuff. It works well.

Removed the rag joint finally after a couple of years looking at it. Added the Nescam. Took it out for a test and tickled the 4 bbl. Love that sound of the Rochester.

Well, after having my Autometer Ultralites in almost a year and trying to change things to match the silver bezels which I realized after installing them they don't match anything in my car, I finally decided to pull them out and paint the bezels black and I thought of doing the steering wheel also but after taping it off with black electrical tape I decided it looks better polished and I also switched back to my black shifter plate instead of my chrome one.
The faces actually look slightly tinted now when the flash from the camera is not on them.

Bought a GN rear sway bar at the Buick GS Nationals on Friday. This morning I wire brushed, sanded, painted and installed it on the Cutlass. It now has GN bars front and rear. It can't accelerate worth a crap but at least it goes around corners competently. :)
