Re: 198Plus build
I just read your build all the way through, it really is a soap opra. I to live in Loganville GA, and have been to you shop about when you did the first test paint on the front fender. I was driving my old 66 step side and buying materials for my 64 project, you came up to the paint store and told me to come take a look at your labor of love. You told me about this web site but I only recently signed up, great information here. I am coming back into town next weekend and I will stop by and see ya. Here is my old 66 sold it to consetrate on my 64.

Thanks, it is alot of extra work and material but it is well worth it.......It's a sickness

Re: 198Plus build
Well I washed some dust off my truck and got some new tires. Can't wait to get it disassembled next week for some wet sanding and 3 more coats of clear.
