    I was 22 years old and a detailer for a big Chevrolet dealership wheb the C5 came out. The first time I sat in a brand new one i was blown away on how much different it was than the c4. In 2007 my dad bought a 2000 convertible. Super clean car and he drove it but didn't treat it like normal old guys do, as in he didn't take good care of it. I would usually give it a once a year deep clean inside and out and eventually did the maintenance too. He sadly passed away may of 2023 and I got the car. It has 114k miles but runs and drives perfect. The paint is about a 4 but I've buffed it to atleast a 6 hahaa, but there is no body damage. I'm now going through it at my leasure fixing all the electrical gremlins that plague these cars. The thing about the c5 is it isn't worth anything unless its low mileage and pampered it's whole life. If you put 16k into that c5 in this video you'd lose alot of money if you sold it. The only way to get this car and make a profit is to get it cheap and do all the labor yourself, keeping the initial investment below 6 to 8k..You can find mid mileage c5s (30-40k miles) with nice paint and interiors for 18-24k. They are fun cars to drive and I do enjoy just cruising it on the back roads of VA with the top down, a slo g as it's not to hot hot because I haven't fixed the a/c yet.

    With all these abandoned Corvette's featured on here, the best car detailing channel I might add, there's starting to be an epidemic.
    A Corvette is one of the best driver sports cars for the money in the world and it's such a shame to see so many it seems to be rotting in barns and backyards.
    If you happen to be lucky enough to own one, no matter the generation, your Corvette deserves to be driven. So get up, grab your keys, put it in first, and go drive your CORVETTE!

      @@dbzownz12345 Um, those dudes build cars to go to SEMA. They are fabricators if you didn't notice. This isn't your average shade tree mechanic shop. The labor rate for dealerships is $200/hr and up. Average auto repair shops around $150-175/hr. $100/hr is pretty cheap, and nobody is doing it for less and any repair shops. The problem is most guys like WD Detailing really don't know their way around a car and don't turn wrenches. So they have to pay through the nose to get these cars running. Those that do turn wrenches and know a thing or two can get that car back on the road for far less. Learn how to work on cars and you won't be victim to auto shop labor rates.

    Great job as always! Today I want to give a shout out to the editing. Most people (me included!) don't realise how much time goes into this. It's not just selecting the best footage out of probably dozens of hours of film, it's also putting the pieces together for a good story, decide on slow-mo vs time-lapse, where to ad some voice-over and last but not least choose and add the right music. It's an art form in itself!

This stuff, Puro, with a magic eraser, no hard scrubbing, and all of the marks are coming off of the camper. Quite amazed, no soaking time, just spray it on and wipe.

    It's wild to think that one day there will be C8 Corvettes that look like this. I owned a C5 and C5 Z06 back in the early 2000s and I too never thought I'd see one in this shape

    So glad to see you clean up the Vette. It’s a shame to see it rot in a field. I was lucky enough to buy an 07 C6 8 years ago. I still love and enjoy it.

      Whew. What prices to get the vette running and legal a good Candidate for a level entry father son project. But 16k for a runner plus is obscene. Flip as is to an enthusiast. And see what happens
