    I've seen your car before while I was a lurker, and now I can comment since I'm now a member.
    Your metal work is so smooth, like it was stamped that way at the factory. Very smooth. I hope to some day to be able to work metal that way, but usually fall short. Very impressive work. I am in Indiana, so maybe I'll get to see it in person someday.

    More progress. 1/3 of the car is at body and paint getting a head start on the rest of the car. Front clip, hood, and trunk got some primer. Finishing up now the last of the metal work on the rest of they body.

    Stunning. Just stunning. In bare metal it looks like a giant drop of mercury it's so smooth. Yeah, I like it.

    It has more red in the metallic purple. It looks almost magenta before its sprayed over a black base.
