Re: 1969 Short Wide
Mike, in my opinion you're paint is turning out great, and the main point is, You are doing it yourself. Keep up the great work. You're going to have one fine ride.

Thanks a bunch Jason. It has been one heck of a learning experience. Back in the day I could literally do a full paint job in a week or two. But it was usually single stage very minimal bodywork.
I'm ready to get it done and enjoy it.

I Just got distracted with literally a room full of NOS parts that I have wanted to use for years.

All I have to say Mike is that looks awesome. The paint came out amazing and the trim looks ridiculous on there. Great job buddy.

Thanks Mike. You set that bar pretty high with your truck. I went with solid red because you just don't see that many around here.
