It's been a while since I've had time to surf the site. First Thread I look at and all i can say is "NICE" !!!!!

Love the Satin Charcoal - can you get me the Paint Code of the Powder

No problem Marty.
I have another batch going to my coater next week for a different project.
I will get the info then.
ps.... any coater should be able to match a paint color with powder. I was amazed at the way powder technology has advanced over the last few years.
He tried talking me into a candy color early on, but I knew this project was going for a more factory / restomod look.

Body work in progress. The rear wheel wells have been massaged and filled as well as the firewall. We're doing one panel at a time so not to miss any details. Still a long way, but making progress.

I saved the rear window channel that was rotted out. I am thinking of sending a package out west... say somewhere in Plattsmouth, NE :lol:
(just for you buddy)

The car (exterior) will be painted Steel Blue off an 08 Magnum and 300c.
Its a blue/charcoal mix. The engine compartment and dash / interior metal will be satin graphite (different than the powder color).

I little change in plans as far as the rear end goes. Trying to keep with all things "bolt-on" or available aftermarket, TCI (Total Cost Involved)stepped up with one of their "bolt-in" rear housing assemblies. This assembly is complete to order: cut to length, proper bracketry with proper drive angle, choice of gear ratio, 31 spline center section posi. Its as close to a custom made to order rear but in a "bolt-in" package.
We have also opted for Clayton Machines Pedal assemblies. All I can say is WOW.... Stay tuned !

Continuing on the "smooth" approach:
If it has no purpose or is an eye soar.... its gone.
Thats the idea. :unibrow:

The cowl area is being massaged as well as areas like the trunk closeout panel and bumper filler.
