    Thanks for the complement Matt.
    Yea I was looking into the double bag. Do you think a triple is to big?

    Paint came out sick. Sleeve bags should be fine if nothing touches them, no high heat or running fast valves. I've never been a fan of them but I'm told by rudders they ride great.

    You are on the down hill slide on that one, almost ready to lay black marks. The car looks amazing.

    I remember doing all the stainless on my car, it ****ed.

    Your car is full on rad, ***s and gnarly. Get it done and we can drive around and scare old ladys.

    Got some more work done. Got chrome completed thanks R&D Finishing for the great job. Also thank you Ron @Cl***ic Instruments for the dash. It turned out great too. Got a date with Art at Rod Designs @1948fleetline in January to get the interior squared up.

    Hi John!
    I would like to know your reference color paint? Or is it a custom-made paint?
    thanks! ;)
