No pesky door jambs to worry about. I'm thinking Olive Drab green or keep it red? It's kinda both now.
Or maybe Kawasaki green with black fenders to match my other Bug? Depends on what's on sale. I'm hoping to finish the whole car for under $2K including the price of the car. That's possible but not likely. Time will tell. I was going to part it but she said to keep it to give the grandkids rides. What the heck I like it.
Before... And the Mustang emblem on the front is going bye bye. I just haven't got to it yet.

If that front end is fiberglass it might have a gel coat. And you could rub that out to get to the original color, match that, and spray bomb the rest of it.
