First Wash in 34 Years: BARN FIND Corvette Stingray ft. Robby Layton! | Car Detailing Restoration. Today, we tackle the interior & exterior of a Corvette Stingray that was abandoned for over 34 years in a barn with Robby Layton, that is covered in mold, dirt & debris that hasn't been detailed in years that will require us to pressure wash the entire exterior, followed by a wash, clay bar and then polishing the paint to bring back its shine and a full interior detail including mold removal. If you find our videos satisfying or motivating make sure you hit subscribe!

BTW, in the Ol' Days, we used to clean/shine chrome with wadded-up aluminum foil and plain water! I know that it doesn't sound like it would work very well, but it DOES! (I think the combination of metals and water creates some form of chemical reaction...) You should give it a try! (And maybe compare it with the best of today's tools and chemicals for use on chrome.)

The "Mako Shark" C3 'vette was my dream car as a kid. The lines are beautiful and if this were my car I would fully restore it. That said, I think it is such bad shape, even after your valiant cleaning, that for me a frame-off restoration would be the only way. And that leaves a perfect opportunity to change colors for body and interior. This may be controversial, but I have always loved the blue/blue combination for the C3!

The one that said 74 had the chrome rear bumper, well thats not correct either. 73 was the one and only year that had just the rear chrome bumper. My personal opinion that would be a good donor or parts car. It would cost way more than its worth to restore it.

I agree. I had a '75. I bought it in' 79 and the bumpers started to warp in' 81.

Any paint shop could do this color if the customer REALLY wanted to drive a car in basically "UPS brown"... It's just a matter of knowing what the paint code is so that the mix can be set correctly... Even without that and just using an optical color scanner to match the color would work if you were only going to be painting a small portion of it and thus needed it to match the existing color... Colors fade over the years (more so if they are out in the sun), so if you paint part of an old car with the original paint code, it might be noticeable... Unless there is something special about it that makes it very rare AND you have a potential buyer with more money than sense, I don't see it being worth all that much... This is not a '63 split tail nor is it one of the steel bumper Corvettes... It's just a plastic bumper car from the days when the federal regulations were neutering sports cars... On top of that, I doubt that it will ever be possible to completely eliminate the smell from the rat piss and shit or the damage they caused over that many years...

It is a really nice shade of brown. I think you should keep it original especially since the tan interior was made to compliment the color. Good luck with your restoration of this car!

This must be a 1974 to 1977 Corvette. The original colors are wonderful. New bumpers are easy to get and paint to match. Spectacular original car. All the dirt and being in a dark garage preserved this car. Great job fellas!

1974 had front and rear bumpers were split, 1975 has just a split rear bumper, So I would say 1976 or 1977.

There used to be a HUGE mail-order automotive retailer back in the day called JC Whitney. They had a HUGE catalog (think - phonebook thickness) they'd send out to my Dad every so often back in the 80s and 90s. Wouldn't surprise me in the least if that's where the Vette owner bought the custom floor mats from.

The custom floor mats with the original owner's names? First thought that comes to mind is the old J.C. Whitney catalogs my Family always were sent, when we had an Auto Detail and Used Car Sales business, from 1983 to 1988. I ordered lots of parts for my 1977 Firebird 'Trans Am' build through that catalog. Primarily WS-6 'grade' suspension parts. Those JC Whitney catalogs had EVERYTHING available, including 'Custom Personalized' rubber floor mats for cars and trucks.

Great job! I owned a 1971 Camaro that was that color. Purchase price was around $3200. It was same color. It was called Rosewood Metalic. I loved the color and what set it off was a set Cragar SS and wide tires. Keeping it original color would probably make it worth more. That's just my opinion. You do amazing work. Keep it up!

@@crazzywolfie I totally agree. I just wish the cars were sold long before they get to this point so it don't cost as much to get it back on the road. Or at least get it out and drive it once in awhile even if around the block to help keep mice out and engine good. Costs way more to repair than to maintain.

Those enduro bumper covers deteriorate over the years. I have seen a number of Corvettes that have been stored under great conditions and taken care of very well and the covers deteriorate over time. Still, that is an easy fix for such a great car. Keep digging them up!
