I really like white cars and yours is no exception. The only thing that could make it look better is white wheels!!!

Ditto on that. Great looking car either way. I have same car (Y2 Yellow) and rims are Yellow. There is something about body color rims.

That is a nice car! Lots of people here can help if you forget where something goes. Are you sure we are going to get any warm days in the east or north east?

I know some repros from a few years ago were poorly done. They copied a poorly repaired original one and duplicated the ugly repairs. I was lucky enough to find an original. The price was the same then.

it came out good but now that it is almost done just small stuff .
i did watch for the body lines and stuff like that but i did the car in peices first year striped and painted engine bay then two years later had hood fenders painted then two after that had doors and trunk done .and one year later had the body sodablasted and painted .
all the paint matched but i know that there is stuff i should have done better so for right now i am going to drive her and enjoy her then i will put her on a rotissrary and do it a little better .
i do miss getting dirty like i tell people i use to put gloves on to keep my hands clean and now i put white gloves on to keep the car clean ha ha

I would love to see it with color matched wheels too. That's a neat idea to have two sets.

Great job
