Unfortunately a PO was compelled to install an aftermarket radio system in my car. Good news it was one of those systems that fits in a box in the rear compartment. I have been dismantling the array of wires, and pulled the rear compartment glove box/battery/storage frame out yesterday. Someone had the storage tray under the frame and I could not get the tray out. After getting it all out and looking for the jack I found it sitting there. Some surface rust but nothing Evap O Rust can’t remove.
Here are a few pics of the car with out the hard top.

The paint looks noticeably cleaner... you've been busy!
Looks even better!

Finally got a chance to clay bar the paint, and put a coat of #7 glaze on the paint afterwards. Paint still has a good shine. I am happy with it thus far. Still have a few things to clean, and fix.
In the carport shots the paint looks like it has a white haze in the photos but there is nothing on the paint. Very weird must be the lighting?

That thing is absolutely beautiful. Nice job on the paint. Man, I'm drooling over here as that is one of my bucket list cars.

Thanks guys I appreciate it. I enjoy polishing on paint to see how far I can bring it. When I got the red Chevelle it was a complete mess. I took a buffer, number 83 and 115 to cut the 20 years of gunk off of it. Got a nice shine out of the Caddy red! It needs to be restored, lots of bad body work but a real numbers L78 with a build sheet. I restored the chassis, rebuilt the engine and it is a blast to drive...but not as much fun as the Vette
