    Tell us more! I'm 6 months away from starting on my '30 and it will also take a substantial amount of time. Yours looks great!

    No it is Scurio Grigio, or medium Gray. It is a PPG Ferrari color without the metal flake added.

    Got to drive it today! Wahoo!! A few more things to fiddle with. Holley94's were leaking like sieve. Put old working Carter AFB on it and it works just fine. Been a while but worth the wait.
