Can it really be referred to as 'concourse' if you are painting it in 2 pack?! [:x)] Just nit picking - awesome resto Peter! The shell prep is amazing. Looking forward to seeing the finished product.

Inside the boot on one of my cars was hand polished so to look standard and it looks great you have nailed it baked paint is hard to replicate new materials are way ahead in gloss retention off the gun and with less peal the only comparable products are low baked two pack this is a great project there is no way you would us acrylic on a car now days

Hi Peter. What did you decide about original paint runs?  A great many new fords I looked at in the seventies had plenty of paint runs in the boot, engine bay and door shuts. I hope you are trying to replicate a Wednesday car not a Monday car.

It's such a tease knowing that the car is finished already, but having to wait for the trickle of updates. Good old supply and demand   Loving the documentation... Attention to detail could only come from an engineer!!  Shaun
