i like it !  what are you using for paint, and what color is that ?  What part/ paint are you talking about?? If you mean the roll cage, its Spies Hecker base coat. No clear and it dries pretty smooth and satin look to it. The color is called Braunbeige. I used a color scanner to come up with it. I can make paint at my job and load it into spray cans, so its super convenient to spray , and touchups are easy also

Really looking great.
On the screen the color looks super close to the original beige so many of them were, back in the day.

You're on the home stretch now! Is there any other fab work or parts you're waiting on, or is it into final assembly now that the engine bay is painted?

Only part not here yet is Converter. only "fab" work left is wiring. I did measure out the harness already so its kind of already started, if that makes sense. There willbe some work to be completed with the wiring. But yes, now its mostly all going back together now
