just rocked into a paint shop and found it on the current GM selection. Was pricey so matched it closely as possible (by eye) to the PPG General whatever type of paint instead of the pricey GM Pearl stuff. Flake will look sweet, Engine bay getting final top coats tomorrow morning, will start reassembling engine bay by late arvo, sweet pics to follow : )

Reckons all painting will be finished on thursday. Anyone know where to buy the GM door pin remover set? Troy has some but is away in Ozzie on business...

Was supposed to take 9days... dropped it off 7weeks ago today. Is doing a great job was very dinged up but as I have been without a work car it has been Barry Whiteing me and my business somewhat. Anyway apparently colour goes on today... and then I can start putting it back together from tomorrow.. :-) we'll see... have been told colour going on at least 6 times before now will point out I didn't pay a whole lot for this to be done and he has had a lot on his plate. Lesson learned if the car is needed go elsewhere... will def use him in future for projects though just not business cars. Feel better after a wee vent!

Ah, Derek, I couldn't remember you're new logon name - what was that place you were talking about that had the old parts? Maybe it was someone else that mentioned it, though?
