Exquisite build !!Can you tell me where you got the "Rub and Buff" from?

If you go to Michael's or any Arts and Crafts store you should be able to obtain it...

That is just gourgeous!

I gave one to my father some years ago with white pearl on it too but it's a convertible.

I think your colour combo really sets it off, very consistent taking it up both under the bonnet and the interior. Very sharp!

Thank's for sharing.

Thanks for the great build link , it's very informative and the photos are very well done. I really like the classics built as stock.

Thanks for taking the time to show your fine work.

I agree wholeheartedly with Ralph--either or both of you two ought to post s tutorial on your methods you use--your cars are beyond criticism; they're THAT GOOD!

Amazing work, and the finishes are simply perfect!
