Sledsel Posted May 3, 2021 Posted May 3, 2021 Very tastefully done. A lot of sparkle to that paint for sure. I always like your dash detailing. Good job.
Just Jim Posted May 3, 2021 Posted May 3, 2021 Great job bringing this one back to life! New kits are great but there is something especially satisfying about restoring one that has seen better days.
