This is historic preservation porn...
 

For anyone who loves spending hours cleaning the original intake manifolds to every stitch on the interior with cotton swabs.
Well here is a fine art conservator I have been watching for a few years - (before coming to my senses and going engineering at Clemson I was an art Major at a Fine Arts school for the first 2 years - I also attended a fine arts high school-from 16-18- drove a HOT ROD 71 RS Camaro)

Much of what he states PERTAINS TO ANY ORIGINAL FINISH you wish to preserve - auto - furniture etc - that stated -
THIS IS A WHOLE NEW LEVEL...

On a related note..

This certainly speaks to your attention to detail James as well as the knowledge that you seem to pull out of thin air.

Thanks for sharing!!!

wow

I have to be honest - when I started to watch that video, I didn’t think that I would be interested, but it turned out to be fascinating! The steps in restoration & the finished painting were amazing!

I enjoyed this video immensely. Super, super cool!

that is talent
