Is the paint base coat/clear or single stage? Great color whatever it is.

Re: My 52 pic's after paint.

I found a few early pic's. She has Mustang II front end, Camaro rear and a Chevy 350/th350 combo. I found her locally to where i live in England. The seller had replaced the floor,firewall. cowl, both door's etc but had run out of money to finish the project. I have moved the gas tank to the rear, rebuilt the suspension, engine and gearbox. Will start putting her together in the new year and update this thread as i go along.
