What a teaser! Just ONE picture? Okay, I get it now, you're probably gonna give us a whole bunch more photos once you've got it all back together again; right Tom? Complete with interior shots and engine bay photos? Nudge nudge wink wink no what I mean? LOL!

Wow !!! Looks good. Now the fun stuff, putting it back together. Every piece of trim and chrome put back on makes it look that much better.

Very nice. What year is your car? I think see a painted rear bumper that would mean its a '75. Am I correct?

I'm ashamed to admit there was a time in my life I did not find those cars attractive. I've sure gotten over that! Nice car, love the colour, and as stated, we WILL be expecting more pics...

Take a deep breath and carefully put one piece on at a time. A new paint job is like a rebirth of a car and its so nice when its complete. The body style is a winner, nice ride.
