Just remember when I started laying down color on the car. I figured I could mess it up as well as anyone. Painting is fun but waiting between coats dose take up a lot of the time spent in the paint booth. Added time was putting the color blender with the mini flake in it over the base coat. Don't figure you cannot stop and come back tomorrow. LOL.

A close friend painted for me.

Well he did a great job. Is it Acrylic Enamel? Or basecoat clearcoat?

Base coat clear coat, and thank you I think it’s beautiful.

You should be proud.

I was hoping to start the bodywork before fall, but with a lack of time to work on my project, and sheet metal on backorder, I'm thinking it will be spring.

Being able to work on mine wasn’t lack of time or material, it was lack of funds. Lol. This one is my second road runner restoration in 3 years. I need a break. Lol

Started putting it together this week.

That garage is huge, what I wouldn't give for one that size. But then I'd still find a way to fill it with crap.
