    Well It's been a long hall but the light at the end of the tunnel is near! Had the car sand blasted underneath after all the metal work was done then painted with PPG epoxy coat then Eastwood detailed grey.After that was done I striped the body of paint and then e coated and began body work then I had the car sent out for paint.I received the car back one week before Christmas Best Christmas gift ever!!Now it's reassemble time!!

    Thanks for your comments guys! The paint I went with is PPG global refinishing FK5 Poly base coat The clear coat is PPG concept clear.Next step is to get the GATOR on the roof after the clear hardens! and finish restoring the rare back window textured molding trim!!

    Wishing everyone the best of health and Happy New Year!!!

     :cheers:

    Rob
