Cowl is done, rockers are done, all the moldings are taken off, the shell is 100% rust free! :mrgreen: Just need to finish up the doors and fenders, make a new spoiler and then its off to paint!

Need some help with the paint choice, can't decide!

Been looking at green, not quite sure about that. This color, without the stripes.

Yellow!

Charcoal.

Or my favourite, Black.

And found the color I want;

That color, with black trim and blacked out allycat wheels, will be neat!

Seems like I have to change out the whole lower part of the door, too many cracks and rust spots to fix :censored: Also got a new deadline for paint, by the end of October :shock: Looks like I have to put the front suspension together without the ferrules for paint, then reassemble it afterwards when I get them :th:

Project stopped, due to stolen tools and hardware, so freaking annoying.
