Body and paint looking great. No better feeling than getting over that stage of the project and start bolting on all those shinny new parts.

Love this car and project but seriously think it’s needs an amazing lace or candy paint job And that silver is a spectacular base for just such paint

Obviously do as you wish it’s your car but feel it would throw it right up over the top!

Either way I love the car and what you’re doing with it I like the clean look too but just think it’s begging for this kind of paint.

Looking cool Dan. Is it just me...or is that a really tall looking tunnel ram?

That distributor is perfect too.

Finally got to do some odds and ends. The fuel filter is mounted, the brake lines and parts are completed, the booster is just a place holder with the original one is being rebuild and plated. Decided to use my Drag dimensions traction bars, just freshing up the paint on them before I put the new decals on.
