This was painted in 2k.
I prefer to use clear over base but the customer wanted 2k.

:drool: Me too! I can see why the owner would change to the new colour, it's lovely. Was the Mustang's shell just incredibly solid as presented to you, or did you have any significant body repairs to do before the paint could go on?

Wow that looks good! I am impressed it isn't ANOTHER Eleanor clone.
You have a serious talent :)

The car had no rot it just needed making straight and a fresh coat of paint
