    it is a pretty funky color...but this is the same color as mr beans car...cept his was faded and not shiny...plus this was taken in direct sunlight so it looks much brighter than it actually is lol

    And here she is...i got home from my deployment early and went up to see the progress...nearly complete...few odds and ends and she will be ready to roll!
    last few things that needs to be done are the new grille/100amp alternator/locking gas cap/clear coat touchup on the tops of the doors
