How about some "Before-After" pictures

[Richard Vyse]

This can go in either direction from good to bad or bad to good. We need to see both pictures though.

I'll start with a couple.

Here's another one.

Inside provides an ever more stark contrast.

Morticia before and after

I was hoping Mr. Smith would react to this and appreciate his pictures.

The infamous super expensive horn ring.

Swamps to strange things to cars.....

...This one was even worse than it looks in this photo.

Richard, you need to label the pictures, can't tell which is before and after? Hehehehe!

 

[Josh Gentry]

Darn, I only have before and still in progress. I wonder sometimes if there will ever be a after. Maybe this thread will help move that along.

He got me too for a minute there! :stars:

And here's my before/after. Not much of a change, but it made a big impact.

 

[Shawn Blyler]

My step-father's (Jim Russell) car before and after.....

 

[Terry Lange]

Here's a couple of "before and after" shots of the '66 Superior Rescuer that Kerry and I used for standby service at Winnipeg Speedway. The first photo was as it appeared at Advance Ambulance Sales in Burnsville, MN when we purchased it in 1980. We kept it until the mid '80's, when it was traded for a '73 S&S.

The black top made a BIG difference !! Love that cemetery photo.....very classy

Richard, I think the car itself looks better in the "after" picture...but we can see the driver much to clearly in that pic. While we have never met, I can't look at your picture without the painful mental image of a womens swimsuit in a dunk tank.....

 

[Bill Marcy]

Thanks guys, for posting the before and after shots of these cars. If somebody needs inspiration to restore a professional car, it is right here! It is truly amazing!

many resto pix

My website features pages of before/after and in-between of my 74 Criterion, 68 Rescuer, and 70 Suburban. My 75 Lifeliner is still a work in progress.
Enjoy
