in real life, this one's green is similar to your choice - I think it looks awesome

That gold really pops!!!

Here is a question for you hot rodeos. Why do we see more Ford and Chrysler cars from the 30's?

[silver_bullet]

Because the Chevys had a wood structure for the bodywork and were worked to destruction! Our 32 Chevy has been in the family since new, first bought by my great uncle who was a painter by trade.... painted every chip as soon as he noticed it.... saved the car and wood from rotting!

Bingo

Thanks for the suggestions

Continuing to prep, we should shoot the last coat of primer tomorrow, maybe a week away on the final paint.

Getting down to the nitty gritty. This is the last primer coat. I am very pleased with the seams and alignments. The trunk fitment is much better than I expected. We also reinforced some areas that were structurally weak which I might not have caught by myself.

Looking Great!
