Re: My Jimmy's Blue !!!!!!

That looks great man. Turned out really good. Now ya just need to hurry up & finish it so your wife can make it her DD.

That hood really looks good too, really made it stand out. You're like the David Copperfield of sheetmetal!

BTW, that color looks like the indigo blue used on the '90's chevy trucks??
