I dont have anything for you Tom, but I sure hope my restored car looks as good as some of the survivors I see under those big tents.

I always thought there was a secret brotherhood of restorers just for that survivor look.

Lots of slow, careful, careful cleaning. Rinse, repeat....

Results vary by the original condition of course.

The only thing I can add is go slow and easy..I just spent days removing and cleaning my headlights,buckets,and brackets.....and yes used ALOT of tooth brushs,soap and water...ALITTLE BIT of a soft scotch brite pads. Came out great and I put alittle very little vasline on the metal to keep it orginial...as I didnt want to repaint thus removing "the survivor" look....it takes alot of time but its worth it.....ALSO PICTURES PICTURES PICTURES....will help if you ever restore.....
