    We used to take cars and trucks down to bare metal in the ag shop in high school.....they would turn orange overnight.....literally start to rust in a matter of hours.

    The car is looking GREAT!! Gonna be a beauty!! :bowdown: Take care! Preston

    I bought a stripe kit from Graphic Express, so he copied the way the factory painted the white on the car, then the stripe goes over that, it should look the way it came from the factory. The 73 stripe is pretty simple compared to whats on my 74 Grabber.

    It's 9C or 9D, I forget, it's bright white to match the stirpe kit, They tried wimbledon first, but it was to creamy.

    Yea, I never liked wimbledon white. It looks ok until you get it next to white. Then it looks like crap. My Sprint was supposed to be wimbledon but I used a bright white instead.
