    What brand spacers did you go with? Do you remember where you got them? The car looks sharp with them on there!!

    I was kinda concerned about them having enough threads for bolting on the wheel, but once I put them on I found it was no problem at all, all lugnuts went on with nine to ten full turns so there is plenty of thread holding them.

    Sanded and sanded some more, found a few little things that needed attention so I did those then sanded a bit more, wiped it down for the first round and got masking in place....

    Well it's GREEN! Not too bad looking, but I'm not happy with the trunk deck, it will be replaced when I find a better one, there really is not much I cant fix and repaint, remember this is my first time painting an entire car......

    More coming I promise, bugs are so bad I had to keep a smoke pot going just outside the shop to keep them at bay, there was a pine tree stump I needed to burn away anyhow so I used it, I will pull it out of the shop as soon as I can but it may be tomorrow, all the pics I can get now are just front and back.....

    Is that paint PPG willow green or a match to it? I have sprayed a few cars that color.. Love it.. Especially if you put a little white or gold pearl in it.
