dr. jay, I started at a really young age, my dad bought an 87 420 SEL and I always spent my allowance on car care for that thing....
Turtle wax to Zymol to Menzerna to Swissvax you name my parents were really cool about that stuff....then it was hand to cyclo to PC to rotary, don't know why but it came pretty easy to me....
