I have had my car since 1979 and have done the motor twice rear twice trans twice but have never painted it well there is no turning back now the paint was put on back in the mid 70s and was getting a little rough so it looks like all new glass, bumpers, paint, emblems ect.I have talked about doing the car for years but just couldnt give it up at least I have another to drive......... wish me luck ;)http://i37.tinypic.com/hukhp4.jpg

Good Luck Dave. It is always nice to have one to drive while you work on the other. What sucks though is when the second plays "evil twin" and breaks so both can't be driven :angry: :D
