    Here's a photo at Roundup that Muncie took,,, I sprayed the doors on a cold night and they turned out a little darker.... I haven't had time to wet sand and buff yet...so I'm just going to sand, tape, and re-shoot the whole thing.

    I'm thinking more along the lines of trading for a 52 Cadillac convertible. I know a guy that has one.
