Just got the car back!  :woohoo: :woohoo: :cooldancing:

Pictures are dark because it is overcast, and my camera's flash is malfunctioning, but as the car gets put back together, I will get better pics taken.  I'm too excited though, so I had to share. 

Other than a dent that went overlooked on the trunk lid, the car is straight as a whistle, and the paint looks great.  Opted to get more of a driver paintjob since, well, I love to drive it.

Here are some more pics.  Hung the rear bumper (need to figure out how to get the rear valance on without bashing the paint)  and painted the tailpanel with organisol.... So far so good...

Getting real close to being finished, just waiting on gaskets and some clips for the tailpanel trim, then on to the interior

It's a textured black paint that the factory used to paint rear tail panels, Shaker bubbles and other misc parts.
