Looks great!

Who shoots the paint for you or do you paint it yourself. It seems to me that you have painted alot of cars...... always wonderful work! Let the mnx group know when you ever get back to Minnesota....

Nice job

Too bad you didn't have them remove the butt ugly rub strips down the side of the car. Just a pet peave of mine. I hate those dealer add-ons including the aluminum rocker panel covers that usually accompanied the rub strips. Can't count how many holes I've welded up caused by those things.

Nice Job!

It's always great to see one of our cars get a second lease on life.

I hope you enjoy many miles of smiles!

Looks fantasic!

But you really need to touch up the black bumper stripe under the left tail light! It really pops out now that the rest of the car is so good looking.

I thought about that but it wasnt paint. It was a black sticker kind of like electrical tape. I never got around to it. The car is now in Michigan with its new owner...
