Deloreans would be cool. You'll need some steel wool! My husband & bil used to work for DMC here in the Houston area.

[@violettheorgangrinder]

Definitely deloreans and they obviously only associate them With a crappy film because they're brain dead and don't know anything about their history, there is a LOT more to deloreans than that crappy movie

[@txdeedee7783]

@@violettheorgangrinder It's also a crappily designed car. Per my husband, putting on, adjusting the doors, and getting the latches in sync is tedious. The fuel injection system was hard to make it pass emissions. They were out of production by time they were used for the movie. The current owner bought the remaining stock and had it shipped to the US. They are now built and restored in Humble, Texas, a suburb of Houston. There are also a few other places around the US that work on them. John Z had skills to design cars (i.e. GTO) but mismanagement, government corruption, and drugs made the dream short lived and the design imperfect. 🙁

I adore these cars, when I was 18, my boss had one and he used to let me drive it! I didn’t even have my own car at the time, everything after that was a bit of a let down if you know what I mean. Great video, really satisfying transformation 👍👍👍

[@scootytamra]

What a lovely old car, there is something about older Jag's that are special, i love the elegant-ness about them, but yet they are strong and timeless. Great work, what a beauty!

[@christinalilienthal2510]

It was great seeing this video. I own a classic 1978 XJV12L Jaguar and it is the finest car I have ever driven. I showed it at the Portland International Raceway's All-British Car Meet and it was judged by 3 Judges at 9.893 and placed 2nd in the Driven class. A Professor from University of Victoria in BC came in first with a gorgeous black model - mine is chocolate brown. This model was considered the Luxury Car of the year in the world back in 1978 and I still have the booklet and also the maintenance manual. Never thought I would have such an affinity for a mechanical machine - but the design is so elegant and under-stated that it is easy to fall in love with it! Takes a brilliant mechanic to keep it running due to its precision design - I can vouch for that....thankfully, I can recommend an excellent mechanic in a shop in Eugene, Oregon.

[@volleyball4855]

Older classic Jaguars are so underrated man. Even up through the 90s they’re gorgeous and elegant af. They almost have that German heaviness with everything feeling solid and Saturday. Can haul ass while being super comfy haha I’d love to bag an older xj L. The VIP guys over in Japan have built some beautiful jags and got me wanting to pick one up

[@mattpipes5106]

It’s such a shame to see an iconic car left to deteriorate so much after the guy obviously spent a decent amount on the paint, interior and mechanical just to leave it in a corner to waste away…..WD have done a great job in bringing back some of its great looks but the damage has been done unfortunately.

[@paulfellows2094]

fantastic job well done guys

[@david.thomas.108]

Wow, that paint work looks amazing.

[@jamesboardman8859]

Nice job on this Jaguar XJ-12L guys. In answer to your question, I've always had good luck using a Brillo, or SOS scouring pad when scrubbing whitewall tires, or alternatively a can of Ajax, or Comet cleanser, a scrub brush, & a bucket of warm water would also do the trick. Good luck!

[@jimmorris1002]

We owned a car as in this video during my years in undergraduate school. I loved the car, but it was for the family. The owner is correct - the car would RUN!!!!!!!

[@brando7474]

Great job on the paint! With respect to the white wall tires, SOS or Brillo pads usually do the trick. If not, a brass bristle brush with some cleanser will work. They make a brush that is a little wider than the typical white wall. The SOS are also perfect for real chrome bumpers and wheel covers like this car has. They will knock all that light oxidation right off.

[@jamespolcyn8441]

I knew a car like this … they are quite special.

[@michaelhale1666]

Best comment you guys have made, “We aren’t perfect.” None of us are, even after 36 years in medicine in my case. I’ve noticed that you’ve changed your approach to mold/fungi on interiors. You weren’t too proud to ask in the past. Keep up the good work. Now, you need to find a ‘77 Cutlass Supreme Brougham to detail. My first car (new) my senior year of HS that I paid for. Second the comment on getting a steam cleaner.

[@fredericksaxton3991]

Fabulous to watch. I had a 4.2 Series 2 Coupe, which was a fabulous car to drive, then sold it and bought a V12 Series 3 car which I drove for about 4 years. It was Magnificent to drive, I could do 200 miles and get out and feel it was barely 20 miles driven. Sadly, it died when the gearbox oil cooler which was physically part of the radiator (!?) got a leak which ingested water into the gear box. I tried flushing it out and fitted a seperate oil cooler but was never the same again. This Series 2 in the video is a rare car. :))

When I’m trying to restore some life back into a customers white walls or red/gold line vogues, the tried and true method I’ve used for years is painting on a nice thick layer of baking soda/water paste, and using either a super stiff bristle toothbrush, or works faster if you have a brass wire brush 👌🏼 works perfect every time 100%.
