I would like to get a C1 fuelie, a split window, C3 LT1. Just one thing lacking $$$

Yeah I understand fortunately the high end cars were purchased many years ago prior to the inflated prices we now see.

Just a quick update, it has been quite cold around here over the last couple of weeks.

Some trim and bumpers back on the Impala. Lots of polishing rouge in my nose and on my face from cleaning and polishing the original trim.

I will post some pictures soon of how it's coming togther.

Did I mention this is a very long car!

Yes they are long and I feel for ya. I believe they got longer as the time went on. Years ago I painted a 1974 Impala that took forever and 2 gallons of lacquer paint plus the additional materials. I thought it would never end. The hood on that thing was almost as long as the corvette.

It took me over an hour to buff out oneside of the rear quarter spears. They turned out really nice.

Havent had the car out of the booth as it's still too cold here.

Wanted to be done with this project a month ago......oh well sooner than later.
