- I decided to try to clean up the Oldsmobile a bit with some CLR and a scotchbrite pad and it worked pretty good.

Considering you had a 55 year old acre of sheet metal to work on ,fantastic job turned out great.
Paul G you’re an idiot

“Mediocre”
He did an excellent job considering where it came from. Very, very good job!
A six-window 1963 Ninety-Eight. No matter what you do to it, it's a stunning car.
I think it's a '64. '63's had same body, but smaller tail lights.
No that is a '63 Olds Ninety-Eight.
Definitely a 63 because I have a 64 in my garage right now 😃
Taillights give it away as a 1963.
It is a beautiful car! Beats the suv look a like junk we have today.
Would never have believed it would clean up so nicely. Great car!
Paul G , Maybe not CLR and a scotch brite pad. However ospho would take the rust right off. I know this because I work on a sea going tug boat and we battle rust on the daily.
Just because you don't understand how or why it worked, doesn't mean it didn't. Rust bleeds through small holes in the coating and spreads. Rust does the same on chrome yet chrome polish removes huge patches of rust to reveal the chrome coating beneath.
Paul G , it's not the original luster. He polished it with rubbing compound and then waxed it. If you put several coats of wax on something it it going to have a shine to it.
I never thought of CLR and Scotch Brite for rust on car. Great job and thanks for tips!
@@PabloDiablo682 are you sure? It'd be a pretty bad job for a repaint. Still pin head rust spots everywhere.
It works only on surface rust.
Works pretty good getting the rust stains off and making the little pin hole rust almost invisible, comet soap works good too
does the CLR eat through the paint ?
@@PabloDiablo682 it's not paint its clr
That thing starts up like it just came off the showroom floor!
I swear I just said the same thing
Yeah absolutely mint
yeah after a million times of pumping the Gas 😂🍻👍✌😁
this is the best type of restoration in my opinion, you are preserving the history of the car,great work.
That's the advantage of an old lacquer paint job from the factory...polishes up great! You would never do that on a modern base coat/ clear finish though.
Not a GM guy but Lacquer paint was awesome stuff . Great to paint with and nothing in the day could match it's shine . Holds up well after all these years to !
More like enamel
Love that land yacht. Wish stuff like that were still made.
Had a '63 just like that one,basically the same color. Loved it, but lost it due to driving it illegally and stalling away from home. It was towed to a police impound and l couldn't afford to get it out. A painful memory from 50 years ago. 😪
Wow, Spectacular! It is an absolute joy to see these old beautys brought back to life in a sort of "natural" way. Just making what is already there sparkler.
What a transformation, awesome job!... Detailing is one of those things that gives you instant gratification.
i miss them old ocean liners. that would dwarf the caddy's and lincolns of today.
Gas mileage would dwarf the money in your wallet too
Nothing wrong with 4dr sedans, love them, they always out sold any other models
actually I have a 1971 polara with a 2bbl 383 and with a change to a electric water pump and fan and a/c delete (didn't work in the first place) $200 all in. I went from 12mpg to 20mpg
Bah 53. G M lacquer never lasted very long ,restorers and body shop started using other types of paint and clear coat
My '90 Cadillac Brougham D'elegance is as long as a extended cab short box SuperDuty! Caddy made a huge RWD Fleetwood until 1996.
There's something great about old American cars painted in light turquoise colors thats just looks right. I had a '65 Mustang painted Dynasty Green with white/turquoise interior that looked awesome. Those turquoise colors make any old car look great.
Absolutely incredible, you'd never have convinced me it could turn out that good with just cleaners and polish. WOW. Great video!
A true classic, from when cars were cars. Vinyl bench seats, AM radio, 3-speed automatic on the column, and a big V-8 (I'm guessing maybe a 371, or a 394) with a 4-barrel carb, power brakes that would throw you through the windshield, with power steering that you could turn with one finger. I miss these old tanks. I've driven many of them, but I've never owned one. And you did a great job with this one. Keep up the good work!
Wow, that's an amazing transformation, I can't believe the roof came back like it did!
Man, what a difference! That thing is still in really nice shape! Looks Great!!!
Amazing what a little elbow grease and determination can do. Transformed it! Very inspirational!!!
I wanna go back in time so bad, cars back then were so cool! Hell everything back then was cool! Cars, music, architecture, decor, neon signage, etc.
Looks Great!!, love those 1963 Olds 98 cars
Wow that’s a huge difference and it looks absolutely beautiful now. The olds is in amazing shape for being so old and still driven. Ya should make another startfest. Love those vids
And queue the Patina Guys violin's playing! hahahaha.... Looks AWESOME! My beetle I just wet sanded it with 400, 600, 800 and then 1000 grit (it was pretty rough) and then hit it with a coat of clear, and WOW. What a difference that made.
This is still patina.
Wow. This will have me happy for a while on my 74 nova. Then i can save up for a paint job
I should have said "Hardcore Patina Guys". I love Patina and have the look on my Beetle. Which is not a fake Patina. I love the outcome of this car and how well it turned out. I never thought it was possible. :)
barfass u
I once bought a 68 cougar xr7 black/white top in Arizona. The paint was dull and looked gray in color and the top was sort of a tan color from years in the sun. I went over the paint with rubbing compound and then put two coats of Duraglow polyurethane sealer (from J C Whitney) on it and then several coats of wax. I used vinyl top restore on the top and when I got done, it looked like I had just restored the whole car with new paint and a new top. A lot of love went into that car and it was worth it...
Bro that's a mean looking machine & u did a great job, it cleaned up real nice... 100 times better... wow
My dad had the same exact color 63 Ninety Eight, loved that car... always told him that I loved the tailights. I'm 56 now & I still remember telling him... I've owned that car from 63 to 68
That car came back to life. What a beauty...
What I always like about these old cars is the dashboard with the big numbers.
The results -- especially from the CLR and Scotchbrite pad -- are quite impressive.
Amazing how much better paint jobs were back in the day
Man that made a huge difference!!!! Lovely Olds BTW, amazing how straight and rust free that body is, and that interior looks nice as well from what I could see. She's begging for a repaint though, let her sparkle in her former glory.
Had a 95 mitsubishi that was so faded it looked pink. 3 hours with rubbing compound and turtle wax it looked great. Revived the faded gray plastic inside by slathering wirh armor all. Best $800 car ever
Back in the late 70's I had a blue 98 convertible it was a blast to drive down the road! I really liked the old Oldsmobiles. Nice job on cleaning her up!
Looks great. Also, the best taillights ever.
Nice job cleaning that Olds up compared to what you started with. Dad had a 1950 Olds first car I worked on with him after 120,000 miles he decided to do the top end on it I was 8 yrs old I am 67 now. Also took my first drivers test in my Moms 1965 Olds Jetstar 88. I bought about the same year olds 98 you have for a car for my wife to drive always started. Thanks for the memories and thanks for sharing. Never thought of using CLR on a car for rust works good.
Nicely done sir really enjoyed this vid. Keep these type of cars they r the best. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you so much, I've got a 65 Chevy truck I'm getting ready to start polishing on.... Great info, I am an Olds fan, cool car!
Night and day difference, great work on keeping that old beauty up.
It's really nice to hear and see a *REAL* car again!! They just don't make 'em like they used to!!
WOW! Impressive! Love the sound of those old V8's too!!
Great Work difference is night and day so scotch brite and clr then compound then wax in that order and this was all hand done no buffer wow im impressed and motivated
Your voice is very calming to listen to. Really enjoyed watching you work on the exterior of ur Oldsmobile!! It’s looking a lot better from where it was when the video first started :)
I was exhausted as soon as you said, all in a days work... glad you took it day by day... you got a good workout, and something to show for it.
love your videos man, very informative and entertaining aswell. keep it up!
Oooooh looks like a completely different car! You should get it road ready and enjoy it before Winter sets in.
I think it looks great. Love those old cars. My Dad had a 1961 Ninety Eight. Wish I could find one in that shape.
STUNNING car. Needs to be garage kept. The clean up results are so satisfying.
Love that Olds.
My Dad had one of those Oldsmobiles the same color. I think it was his favorite car. I was maybe 6 or 7 could have been younger. I somehow got it into reverse and the car backed into a ditch and my Dad had to get a tow truck. Boy was he mad! You did real good to made her look good!
That looks a thousand times better.
What a great job. The car looks like a great survivor. I would enjoy driving it.
My mother loved oldsmobiles. Went from a failing ninety eight to a Toronado-front wheel drive., and that thing had some power to it.
You're inspiring me to polish up my old car. It's much smaller than the Oldsmobile so I have no excuse :)
What wonderful work great job really made it look great I'm going to do this to my patina rittled truck.
Looks amazing! I'm glad you posted this cause I have been considering doing the same to my old F250 but never knew the best method. I'll be duplicating the same you did.
Nice transformation!!! Love them old boats!!
I like that a lot and really worked well. The Olds is sweet.
Can't believe there's still paint there after getting all that rust off.
Great idea using the CLR on a rusty vehicle. Will have to try that on my old '86 Toyota 4x4 that's been sitting under pine trees for 25+ years. LOL
Amazing results. I just started my own project 62 Comet. I will try the clr !!!
This is the beauty of single stage paint! If this was a base coat clear coat you would of never been able to Bing it back to extent you did!!...you did an amazing job!...it looks awesome,i wouldn't paint it as the patina looks great!!
Thanks for not thinking it should be all patina i like people like you that fix them up
Nice,what a transformation,job well done.Love those old cars,miss my 69 delta 88
Just bumped upon this video. i absolutely love this car. thanks for sharing.
Incredibly well done! Congrats.
I had no idea this was possible. I am amazed!!!
That thing is beautiful!!! Great job! 👍👍
Great job! Thanks for taking the time to make the video hell that had to be the easy part compared to the Elbow grease it took to get that land yacht to look that good!
Enjoyed it, I used to ride in one of these, it was A 63 Olds 98, a white one same body style, from a private school we went to at the time, a neighbor around the corner had it. Actually I liked their light green 62 Olds 98 best. A friend of theirs turned this 63 in on a new 64 Lincoln and my friends Dad bought it. At the time I didn't realize this was almost a Cadillac
Good video. Doing this process made a big difference. The best part about your effort is that you protected the body from getting worse. My experience with wax that doesn't leave white behind is that it doesn't last as long as regular wax. I see almost a few years have passed since you did this and I'm thinking you should check it to see if there's any wax remaining on it. It may be ready for another waxing by now.
Throughly enjoyed your video and narrating way more than others lol
Good job and nice ride!
Nice job mate, big effort.
Love the colour and your after shots give some
idea of what this beauty would have looked like ,
when some proud man or woman picked it up
from the dealer ship, all those years ago.
that is just amazing. never tought it would look that good
Thanks for great, informative video and that a lovely olds ninety-eight!
Freaking amazing. Great job, man!
you've done a fantastic job, considering the original condition of the paint work great work keep it up :)
nice vid man thanks!! The improvement was quite awesome!!!
Looks great! Grandma would be proud!
Great job. You cleaned it up really nice. I also live on a dirt road so I know how it is. Enjoy your labor of love..
I love American classics. If i had one i would polish it and probably fall in love with it
you sir are a polishing God
Paul G you’re a repetitive moron
Good looking car, a friend had the same model many years ago. Very comfy ride and dependable Oldsmobile.
Nice! Did same thing with an old 64' Chrysler Newport. Nice tip on the CLR!
Damn nice lookin Ninety Eight there. It cleaned up really nice considering the rust that was on it!
Wow, that is some amazing work! I have to try this to my old chevy :O
Huge difference! it looks really good, nice job.
Ohh Wow! That's a sweet Olds!⚡👏👀⚡
😍 awesome,I am glad I found this channel
I had a silver car that was faded bad and did rubbing compound and many coats of wax. No buffer just hand waxing. I'd add wax to a small section every night after dinner. I don't know how many coats but it shined real nice after a while. I even added lemon Pledge a couple of times :) Thanks for the video.
Amazing what can be done with some elbow grease and the right materials, quite the difference , well done mate !
Wow this is awesome!!!! Thanks for sharing.
That came out really good. Great job
IMPRESSIVE!!! Awesome job!
Nice work ! You did a awesome job on the Olds .
So often, cars can be cleaned and detailed and look great.....but because people don't take the time to do it, they turn into parts cars.
That's how you can get a great deal on an old car too!
So finally, I also added classic six carbs a better cam and Jardines long tube headsets tuned for broad torque. I put on Holly economizers for the two center carbs so it now got 12 to 15 mpg! Amazing! As long as you did not crack the end carbs. But when you did this 4200 lbs vehicle would take off like well, like a rocket Oldsmobile if you held the trans in 2 and then in 3 speed. Finally sold car to my cousin who still has it. Wonderful memories.....
Amazing transformation!
Great! I’m going to have to do this to my 63 Fairlane wagon. Maybe I’ll make a video lol. My car looks a little rougher than yours. Great job!
Looks great. Very helpful tips
Absolutely beautiful job!!!!
That’s a cool car. Love it. Body is super straight.
Excellent work!
Bright-o, Bright-o, makes old bodies new! We'll sell a million bottles! Woo woo woo woo woo woo woo!
Heavy duty oldsmobile I like them back in the days and you did a good job
