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

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.
