Re: My pride and joy.....

I cant wait until i get the money to repaint mine where i live im the only person around with the gunmetal gray color and i love it,i thought about going black until i realized how rare that color really is (622 in 1989)plus seeing cars like yours helped me decide

Looks like we have the MSD box located in the same spot, and the blaster coil (if I see it correctly) in the same spot aswell

I like to rag Del about his car cuz they are apparently a dime a dozen.

Fact is, I love this color on this car.

Re: My pride and joy.....

nice TPI polish job. did you do that yourself? how do you sand the runners, i have a set i was attempting to get to look like that (until i dented them ) but the sanding just took forever... i had an hour on ONE tube and it still had a ways to go before it was ready to be buffed.
