That's a sharp looking car you have there. The chick magnet force has been increased by a factor of 200, hope you can handle that sonny. Looks great.

What can ya say, If ya have the means, that's the ONLY way to do it "the best you can". Fabulous job Paul, you did the job right and with the proper care it should last another 30 yrs.

Great Job!! That inspires me to get started on my paint project. I liked the way you masked everything to keep from trashing the engine compartment and avoiding the complete removal of the interior. Had thaought about removing the doors but looks like you guys avoided that with good results. Great pictures and fantastic results - thanks for sharing.
