The body was painted Friday night. The pictures are not in black and white...that's the color.  No clear yet in these pictures.

They are sending me another argent sample.  This time the light argent will be sprayed over a black base.  That's how the tail light housings were done from the factory so we'll see what it looks like.

Right now it looks like I'll be getting it back on Fathers Day weekend. :bigsmile:

Paints all buffed and the vinyl top is on.  Only thing left is to apply the stripes.  It's coming home on Saturday.  More pics to come once it's home.
