356 update..



Well this one took a long time to get to this point. Lots of unseen work has gone on as described in the prior posting. This paint was a mix of our own utilizing a BBC Midnight Pearl, with a Dupont Chroma Light Blue, and Black. The layers of clear are the final batch of Duponts 7900S. So it's vibrant without being to bright but soft. The panels came out pretty straight which was nice! The top is back on for the long haul as are the rest of the exterior necessities. Next is to get-er back running with a 12 volt system instead of 6. Electronic ignition instead of points and a single carb for more low end torque. Then off to get the rest of the leather upholstery done. Final pictures will be posted when it gets back from Albert the upholstery guru. As usual, you can click on the pictures to see them large!
