It may not be the color you wanted but it sure laid down nicely Lyle. Hell that looks pretty damn smooth to me.

This rascal is back on the burner. I'd love to finish it up next week, but who knows. Wife has PT 2-3 times, I think, and probably a doc appt or two. Oh, our water line appears to be leaking again.....probably under the driveway.

These are the pieces I'm tacking this morning...should be fun. need more coffee.

Heh...those side mirrors in chrome. Oughta be fun. Better put on a pot of coffee and a side of liquor.... just in case. :giggles:

I know oh so well how much a PITA they are to do back in my younger years. I never could get them straight or to hold with glue. Better break out the super glue.

CA for certain. The s Reuter’s for the mirrors were plain plastic. Did you know you can brush paint Molotov chrome? Yep

I was going to ask if that emblem was molotow. Yes you can kind of brush it, more like drip it.
