Tell the truth Daryl Texas didn't have enough silver paint to finish the job.

Maybe you can start on the Valiant? The wagon also?

Fall back and regroup ..The wagon is in body shop everything is fixed and its ready for the paint touch up

I want to sell the rims /tires on the car if anyone is interested ..shipping would be rough though

Ok, it took some time but the DeSoto is finally in my place. I received the car this evening and spent half an hour looking everywhere, but lighting was really poor. The suspension job is really fantastic, all the work is really well done. Will be installing a wiring harness in the next few days, and will have a driveshaft built.
Will take some pics tomorrow

Bigdad singlehandedly doing his part to boost United States automotive exports! I think that car has enough of a mafia-look to it that it will be well cared for.

Great glad it made it, wondered several times if it enjoyed it's cruise across the water

And where it was during hurricaine Ike?

Already working on the car, took all interior off, fixing all dents, and aligning doors and hood. Going to bare metal soon, preparing for some black paint.
