Almost done, just took a couple of years and a few bruised knuckels. What do you guys think -- should I have gone all black?

Re: Resto

It looks great. Some people would like it all black while others would prefer the black/gold. It's all a matter of personal preference.

Very nice car. It looks like all the hard work you put into it really paid off. Black is one of the hardest colors to paint with perfection and your car looks amazing.

Looks very sharp. Just starting to restore my car and if it finishes looking anywhere as nice as that one, I will be very happy.
