HOT WHEELS REDLINE RESTORATION
Just to answer a question that I get quite often - I do not offer any type of restoration services. I do not restore cars as a service & I do not offer plating, polishing, or repair services.
Due to personal reasons I am taking a leave from this hobby for a while to pursue other interests. I have also had to downsize and remove some of the photos & information that were here due to limited webspace availability with my new ISP. I may eventually remove this website completely, I'll see how things go. Just too many people are starting to use this hobby for scamming & profiteering, thats not whats its about and I want no part of it.
If anyone has anyone questions on tools, techniques, paints, or related questions please feel free to contact me by e-mail but please understand that I may not always be able to respond promptly, sometimes it may be a few days. You can contact me at: slmajor1@verizon.net
The information on this page is for anyone & everyone. If you wish to use this information for your website or any type of public display please ask me first.
I am creating this page to help out all those people that wish to do their own redline restorations. Anyone who wants to use this information for themselves or for honest reasons are welcome, however anyone who intends to use this information for dishonest purposes is not welcome.
Now with all that out of the way - LETS GET STARTED!
