My wife needs to take lessons from yours. I asked for 1 thing, a Moto Lita, showed her where to order it and made sure she had the $. No Moto Lita under the tree...

You just can't trust painters, now can you Jeff? It looks perfect...


I thought you said he was going to make it look 45yrs-old? All bright and shiny... geez! There goes the whole project! It won't match the wheels.


Paint is always an amazing transition.

"Wet Paint" ...must ...touch ...augh!


Seriously though, Jeff, the car looks great. You must be anxious to get 'er finished and on the road.

It's Absolutely Gorgeous Jeff! She really looks vintage correct.... Also glad to see you didn't overdo the metallic. But now you’ve got to be very, very careful

Very well done.

I must admit it came out great! Tim, Restoration Station, wants to sand and buff.....

Yes, it is a bit much for me but I can live with it....
Yes, thanks on metallic comment. There is Hertz variations and this one is less crass... some look too orange some too yellow I feel this is a great representation of the color. Can't wait to see it in sunlight...

Thanks for the kind words guys....... It is looking wet even dry, need to take it on a hill climb to get it dusty...

Many thanks
