tasteful American interpretation of a European Gran Turismo
The “SS” stands for Super Sport, a family of high-powered Chevy options. There’s an SS 427 in the full-size Chevrolet line-up and an SS 396 Chevelle (the Chevy II 327 is too hot to publicize, and the 164 cu. in. Corvair is barely warm to the touch).
When released this was one bad car and still hold its own value of fun for collectors today. When it comes to detailing and older car be sure to take it to the right place. Old cars, having braved in the sun, wind and rain, are more likely to suffer from paint oxidation. There are also more opportunities for gravel to chip away at the paint. Additionally, old cars tend to have more dents, swirls, and scratches. Therefore, they require more lengthy and complex polishing techniques.
After polishing experts recommend the application of a coat of wax to prevent sun damage, water spots (that carry contaminants), and corrosion from other substances such as bird droppings, tree sap, and hot drinks. When detailing new cars, the focus is rarely on the wheels. A thorough soapy wash is often all you need to have your wheels and tires looking fresh out of the dealership again. In contrast, old cars require full-day treatments.
One of the key steps to treating old car wheels is removing brake dust. Brake dust is the residue left over by brake pads as they scrape against the metal discs or drums that stop vehicles from moving. Over time, a mix of adhesive carbon fibers and metal shavings gathers on the wheel rims. The danger of leaving the brake dust to accumulate is that the intense heat and friction generated by the moving wheels will cause the dust to become highly corrosive. If not scrubbed off with the correct cleaning agents, rusting can occur on the wheels.
