Thanks guys, .. The paint is old, it's still got nicks in it here and there and stuff I just couldn't get out without adding some 'patina' ..

But from 10ft away it will look like it has been painted recently.. Much better than old oxidized orange peel.

I think my finger prints are gone.

From the way it looks right now, It will be dropped and I'll have my wheels around mid May. I'm piecing the wood bed together now. I have located some white oak, and FREE bed strips for it. ..

I haven't forgotten about my 68 btw. More to come there too.
