Thank you all for the kind words. I'm not sure about the paint. I do know that it doesn't compare to the other similar period paint jobs that one of the recommended painters (Tony) has done. Then again, you get what you pay for. Unlike those other ERA's I've seen, this car has been cut and buffed well and doesn't show orange peel. Everything is silky smooth. It could use a simple machine polish to make it perfect (totally swirl free), but it's white so is very forgiving. I will likely be polishing it up and detailing the underside soon. The only thing that bothers me a bit is the gold staining on the SS pipes. I've tried steel wool, compounding, metal polish and more.....can't get all the gold heat stains off. I wouldn't mind if it was gold front to back, but where the muffler section is there is less heat so there is no gold staining and looks a bit off to me.
