Ha Ha! Thats a good one. Where did everybody go

Welcome to CO. You're gonna have a nice ride soon. Is that a two stage paint system? It looks really deep. Nice.

Wow, really nice looking paint from the photos. Brave man to use black, I have heard it is the most difficult color to make right because every little imperfection shows up but also heard that the effort can be worth it in a mirror like surface.

Welcome to CO, and your Oldsmobile is going to be beautiful! Yep, black is the hardest, for all the reasons mentioned above. Can't wait to see yours finished and put back together. Keep the pictures coming!
