Looking good.

Ebodies always look good in primer black :p

Forest green metallic w/polished slots is a good combination, especially with '71 style stripe.

 :2thumbs: Wow it is coming along great.  In the end it will be amazing.  TO eh, my old stomping grounds.  Hard to find solid project cars there.  But you'll have a new 73 soon. :canada:

Nice color.  A white painted top would kind of look nice with that orange....just my 2¢.
