I tried it three times! Your server will not accept the pictures. I had this same problem when i was trying to send them to people interested in my ss wheels. Do you have another address i can try? Maybe that will work. Sorry i am not too computer friendly.

The color of Frank's car is pretty damn close to mine! It looks a little darker but that is basically the color. Pictures do not give that paint justice. My paint job looks so deep when you are standing next to it. I am glad i went with this color!

i used 98 indigo blue metallic, it's flake is more towrds blue than the navy blue whose flake is more towards purple, you really can only tell when the light hits it, on an overcast day you struggle to tell the difference. I'll post pics when I get home tonight

Hey Frank, Love the car, any new news on the accident? Are you going to be able to fix it up? That was one (if not the best) looking 84 birds Ive ever seen.

Later man,
bill

The appraiser came out about a week and a half ago. He gave me a call a few days after and told me the damage was about $4000 worth. He also told me to make copies of all my reciepts to prove the money I have invested. I'm just waiting for the insurance to call and tell me what's going on.
