Looks great, can't wait to see my car look like that, found that it was repainted long ago, but someone forgot to sand the original paint underneath, no marks, not scuffed, nothing, smooth as new clear!

...a bit late getting these here.
With all the snow in the Northeast, the car has been stuck inside waiting for a day to get outside for some photos.
It was returned to it's owner this past weekend. Lighting wasn't the best for the completed shots - perhaps in Spring (whenever that is) and the polar ice caps that have settled on New England have melted I will be able to take better photos. (Of course with all the snow I'll probably need a rowboat to get to where the car is with spring flooding....)


And yes, the seats are temporary. The owner installed them while the original seats are out to have the frames repaired.













Best,

Wow, looks pretty sexy.

Does the door paint not match though?
