Car looks good, but did you really have to create another thread about you car being painted? Couldn't just update the thread right under this one?

Very Nice!! When the time comes I'm thinking of changing my vert from red to either black or shade green. Best colors for verts IMHO

Very clean car!! again bravo sir!!

Those pics make me lament for my black vert. It got totaled by a woman going to fast coming down a hill in the rain. A red vert was the best replacement I could find and I've always missed my black one. I'm looking at a rebuild on my swapped engine. Your pics have me considering taking the extra plunge and changing the color while the engine is out.

One question about the seats. Do the lighter centers help tone down the heat that soaks into the dark interior? I've considered doing the same thing but with a light tan if the car stays red. Or a dark mustard if the car goes to black or shade green.

I had that same cell phone up until about a month ago.

Car looks good, the paint's beautiful and the seats look good, too.
