The red one is a 1937 Ford Coupe, the one with the blue pinstripe flames is a 1932 Ford Vicky, and the aquamarine one is a 1957 Chevy. I think the other older coupe is a 1934 5 window Ford Coupe. All choice street rods.

I'll be posting more pictures of these car and Saturday's event tomorrow.

Members of the South Orange County Rods & Customs car club brought a good mix of cars... Here's an excellent example of a couple of old school hot rods,

1932 Ford 5 window coupe





Jim's 1957 Chevrolet Belair



And here are some examples of some modern hotrods...

From this view, the finish on this 1937 looks pretty good...



But from a different angle after the sun poked his head out it starts to look a little different when you know how to inspect the finish in bright light,



Here's a close-up with the sun in the same area as in the above photo. Here you can better see the swirls and also a random, isolated, deeper scratch, (RIDS).



So into Meguiar's Garage it goes to use as a demonstration vehicle for how to remove swirls.

Before working you the finish of this 1937 Ford we went ahead and wiped it down using a Meguiar's microfiber Ultimate Wipe with some Meguiar's Quik Detailer to remove any loose dust or light contaminants from the finish.
