70 getting a little closer

Had the body shop fill in the side marker lights. Also having him fill in the bolt holes along the rear wing windows so I can get rid of the "L" trim piece.

It has been at the body shop for almost 2 years. I chose him just because it is just him and he has experience with older vehicles and I have seen his work. I don't mind the time it takes as long as he does a great job.

Very excited to see the finished product.

 

3 coats of paint and 3 coats of clear.

 

Green, my favorite color! Is that custom color?

 

No, it's a mopar color. It's F8 metallic

 

Looks good on the car, perhaps in part because it's a late model color but a bit of a throwback. It's quite reminiscent of greens from the 1970s. https://bangshift.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/10/ebay-1972-Fury-3-685x514.jpg

 

I agree. My grandmother had a 73 Maverick that was a dark green color. I am not sure if it was original or not as they had it painted and tried to have the rust in the bottom of the doors fixed.
I wanted to go with a red (retired fireman) but decided against it.

 

i LOVE the color. I had mine in paint jail for like 3 yrs. It was a filler job for them. I wish I would of had the holes filled on the boomerangs.

 

Thanks, I appreciate that. I am hoping it turns out as well as I think it will.

 

Getting a little bit closer!!!

 

That looks amazing !!
