Looking forward to it!

I've done that trick with wheel cleaner, ouch! Your car looks great. The pinstriping is a nice touch, are you a hot rod fan?

Thanks. I thought the grey could use a little contrast. And if I had to do it over again, I would have had him use a lighter color along with the red,instead of the black.

Nah, no hot rod fan, getting to be more the old man driver every day - well,then again pushin' 68, I am on old man.......
