Jeff,

Here is an example of a 32 we built and painted candy, and then switched to metallic. You tell me which is which.

I like them both, and the color! If I had to guess, I would say the bottom one is the true candy. Please tell me I'm wrong so I can use a metallic that looks good.

and other custom touches. Looks like you have a nice project going on. I know there is lots of time under the car as well.

I think I heard about your seats yesterday while checking on the progress of mine. I can't wait to see them completed!

I had the same feeling, so what did I do after my painter urged me to go with base clear?

yep, we painted it Candy. I could never have pictured it any different. I don't want to discourage you, just wanted to let you know of some of the headaches with it.

I'm just going to drive my car now until the paint falls off, then repaint it sometime down the road. Probably candy again

I've been wondering for a long time now...

Do you think Boyd wears those ugly shirts as a "Trade Mark" or if you think he really likes that stuff?

Maybe he has eye troubles (that would explain the dark glasses on all the time)

Lead.

Its must be like Einsteins suits many of one color, Boyd the same ugly shirt

The bottom is the candy, I actually don't have a pic of the metallic in the sun. But I can tell you they look almost identical in the sun. I personally don't think candy makes that much difference to justify the problems.
