We're keeping pace. My car was painted, for the most part, last week. Getting close.
Feels good, huh?

Feels Great!!! Hoping I'll get it in 30 days or so. I've been told that's the time frame. Just getting body work and paint done.

That is beautiful.
They definitely took the high road.

Are you going to put a vinyl top back on it too ?

Thanks again! Yes, I'm going with a vinyl top. I saw that car on youtube, nice car! Think that's a Alpine blue color?

Yeah, that one is Alpine...also a very nice color!
You going back with black for the top? I was thinking white for mine for quite a while but I am very glad I went with black now. It kind of gives the turquoise a bit more masculine look....if that makes any sense to anyone but me.

I agree with you. It kinda breaks up the color. Black top and black interior.
