Thanks
Car has been sitting with painter now since last June. Finally at point where block sanding. The guy that I insisted fit/finish and paint is also the shop mgr (busy as hell) and pretty meticulious. I've told them to take their time. I've got a house a rehab now taking all my ime and money. Hopefully will be done in 6 weeks. Got a basment full of suspension parts to bolt on

Okay we have paint. Jambs but is a start. Noticed some trash in paint - under hood and trunk. Need to talk to painter expecting to get it out - especially after waiting so long. Guess they will see how picky I am. Overall Looking good.

Exciting, isn't it???? I really like your choice in color. What color will the dash and interior be?

Interior is going to be white. Hard to see but dash is already painted and cleared - basically period correct white. Will also have white top and pearl lemans stripes.
