The 1973 Plymouth Cuda 340 has arrived!

1973 Plymouth Cuda 340 – Training Car #6!​

Check out the swirls in the paint.

Check out the scratches in the windshield.

And check out those poor white-letter tires—the lettering has turned a nasty brownish-black.

Perfect!

Why?

Because this isn’t a CAR SHOW.

THIS IS A HANDS-ON DETAILING CLASS!

This 1973 Plymouth Cuda 340 with a 4-speed is Training Car #6 for my upcoming 2-Day Hands-On Detailing Class.

And Saturday morning, this Cuda is FIRST UP!

ROTARY POLISHER TRAINING​

We’re not going to sit in chairs and talk about rotary polishers.

We’re not going to watch a PowerPoint presentation about rotary polishers.

You’re going to put a rotary polisher in your hands and TRAIN on this Cuda!

Real car

Real defects

Real hands-on training

WIPER SCRATCH REMOVAL​

Next up—the windshield.

This Cuda has years of wiper scratches in the glass, so the class will learn how to machine polish the windshield to remove wiper scratches and restore clarity to the glass.

Again—no chairs.

You learn by DOING.

AND THEN WE'RE GOING AFTER THOSE TIRES!​

The raised white lettering has turned brownish-black from years of age, contamination and neglect.

First, the class will learn how to machine scrub the tires to get them surgically clean.

Then we're going to take things up another notch.

We're going to MACHINE SAND the raised white letters!

The goal?

Remove the old, stained and discolored surface and reveal fresh, vibrant Arctic White lettering against those black sidewalls.

Now that is something you don't learn sitting in a chair watching a PowerPoint presentation.

AWESOME MUSCLE CAR. EVEN BETTER TRAINING CAR.​

These are the only classes I know of where you get to develop real-world detailing skills while working on some other dude's muscle car!

No Chairs

ZERO Sitting

No PowerPoint Presentations

100% Hands-On Training.

And we train on COOL CARS!
