You sure lay that paint down slick, Don. I used to be able to do that, but it's been a long time, and I've lost the touch. BTW, who was the manufacturer of that body? Just curious.Jack

Jack, Thanx for the Kudo's, after 45+ years of pullin the trigger, I guess either ya get real good @ it, or ya do a lot of buffin.
I hate to buff , so.
It's a BeBop body, straight as an arrow.When I get to where I was goin, I forgot why I went there>

Glad to see that last picture. It looked like the car color was leaning toward butterscotch. You had me worried.
