1970 442 back from paint (pics)

Got my car back. All in it took about five weeks. Very happy with the results. Car was taken to bare metal. Only rust was a spot on each lower front fender, which was cut out and new metal welded in. (LOVE SOUTHERN CARS)
Jambs and trunk are still original paint. Along the way the car picked up a Thorntons hood and a pair of original sport mirrors.

That looks great. Love the color combo. Did it have stripes originally?

Great looking job... The one photo with the reflection of the dollar bill makes the paint look real deep...
