Lookin' good, bro.
I'm sure the pictures don't do the color any justice. Looks like alot of metallic flake in the paint. 8)
It's going look cool when it's all put together.

Cked in today at the body shop after work and they were putting everything back together, handle, locks, tail lights etc..they still need to paint the door jams, mirrors, install the rear spoiler and paint it as well, so i took the sun visors so i can put my mother-in-law to work since shes here visiting from Mexico :mrgreen: !!! I Bought the black fabric for my headliner and had some left over for the visors, she will stich them as tight as she can...i know she will do a good job...plus it saves me alot of money to get them re-done...stay tuned..

Sweet!!!! I'd reccomend using as many c clamps as you can when you glue that dash pad on. I glued one on a whole back and it came out nice. I'm right behind you bro! Can't wait to drive down and cruise with y'all
