Free Ford I brought back from the dead.

Yes it was free from NC. How does it look now after loads of buffing, and loads of tlc. This wa all in august, just thought id share my detail skills.
The day i got it

Because I’m curious, why was the car free?

Looks great …

if thats 2wd … pm me when your ready to part ways with it please

nice work,

+1 on the pin striping

+1. Looks like it just needed a good wash/wax. I’m assuming it ran when you got it?

Plan to rattle can the tow hitch?

nice work man :tup:

The pics of the faded paint are after the wash and clay bar. I had to wet sand some spots and buff the whole dam thing. Its a 4x4 fully loaded. Even had dealer installed DVD, and video tape player in it with a TV antenna. I sold it to my neighbor. I got it for free from my friends bro in nc, he didn’t want it anymore and it just sat under a tree for 2 years close to the beach. I should have gotten more pics the whole thing had sand everywhere on it. Those before pics are all after a long power wash and extensive soap down.

^ Still, insane that he just gave it away with nothing more than needing a serious detail.

BTW, took me about 20 minutes to mask off the rear bumper and hit the hitch with some rust converting primer/paint on my Expedition. It made a huge difference not having that ugly rusty mess hanging off the back.

good work

Ill get some pics from my neigbor i did take the hitch off and paint it.
