Terry -- You have impecable taste!  Thumbs%20Up Looks like my Penny down to the dual mirrors and same tire/wheel combo (minus BBC hood).  Obviously, your Baby sports a MUCH nicer coat than my sweetie. 
 
We aspire to look like yours again someday.  I have toyed around with what color to paint her.  Black? White? Pearl? Candy Apple (just kidding)? I think you have now convinced me to keep her RED! 
 
Now get outta here and drive her around to show off that paint!!!! Clap
