Default My car and the start of Steels Cities Grey painting.

I have a few pics of the Door jams and the inside of the doors with the new paint. The car is slowly making progress at the painter. The hood has been primed along with some of the car. He started painting the jams and insides of the door of my car. I got my first look at Steel Cities Grey and how it looks layed down. Some of the pics show it looking silver and other green. Man this color is Sweet!!! Here is a link to the folder with the pics on my website. http://bellsouthpwp.net/m/l/mlbcpa/Car%20Paint/

Mark, those pics bring back fond memories! The anticipation is so great, then you follow it up with the elation of seeing those first color coats go on and realize that your dream is coming true as the new paint goes on. I know you're on cloud nine. I must admit that Steel Cities Grey is my absolute favorite color on a chrome bumper shark. Be sure to post pics once it's all done.
