Thanks gents, it’s been a long time coming.
Keeping my paint scheme to myself for now, but will say that it’s not going to be my avatar.
For those that have been at this point, you probably remember how exciting this is.
For those that haven’t yet, this is really the point when the car is coming together.

Congrats! Mine went for paint back in January. Been getting picture updates which is fun. They are nearing the end, can't wait to get it back and reassemble.

Great news John,
I'm right there with you. As of today I just finished the body filler work scuffing and prep for slick sand. I am sending it away for slick sand and paint. Very excited to see all the details coming together just like you said.
