For a first attempt, that's a GREAT job! It's a very cool body too! The colors remind me of my high school's rival!

 

[Rusty Nail]

Thanks! I appreciate that. Pretty ironic on the colors lol

 

[Certified Mike]

Lol! Was your team's rival red and black???

Actually it was red and dark gray lol

Lol! On my huge list of round tuits, I have some bodies to paint, but there is very little black, a good amount of silver, blue and green. No red either. I'll have to get you on the next trip!

My high school colors were orange and black. We were the Tigers.
Be careful with that body. I made the mistake of leaving mine outside one day and then this happened....

I'm just surprised that after all this time no one from Ford tried to sue you for copying their factory finishes!
I'm sure a Sanford and Sons. Version will be in the works soon!

On the bright side, I never have to wax it.

Thank you very much. It's been on hold for a long time. I really have to get back to it and do a ratty interior. Then I have to make it run.
