Studied all of those. Just wondered if you had any other pics of other cars in your library?
Thanks, Pat

Dose this look like we are headed in the right direction with the dolly marks?

Color looks pretty bright but it looks like its a result of your flash rather than the true color. Remember to remove the rear spring bushings before you apply the color (over the red oxide base you did there.

Once you start leave the dolly post in place until all the painting is done - through the pinch weld black out ;)

I like to use a small rubber tip cut in the shape of a triangle and while the paint is still wet, press the rubber into the paint in a random manner.  This replicates the 'spangle' of the galvanized finish.
