Can I ask what type paint you used? Getting ready to shoot mine soon and just trying to get what everyone is using. Been a LONG time since I painted a car.

Are they ever done? LOL! Interior could use freshened up it is still factory original and doesn't look very good against the fresh paint. I also need to clean up under the hood because it also now looks like crap. I may be getting new tires these ones still have plenty of tread, but they are 12 yrs old now. So when I replace the tires I may re blast and paint the wheels and replace a couple of trim rings that are scuffed. Thanks for the compliments. This is definitely a love it or hate it color.

Looks great Jon. I don't think it's a love or hate colour anyone who hates it is wrong!

Maybe hate is too strong of a word. I agree if you don't like it go some where else. HA! Actually we put a new vinyl top on. Once you take the old off there is no way to put it back on because during the removal process it will get all stretched out. Putting it on wasn't too difficult the hardest part was getting it centered on the car.
