I know brown is not a popular color, but I love it. And I plan on keeping this car forever, hopefully I can stick to that. Thanks for all the suggestions and pm's, you guys have been great.

Everyone said the same when we painted my dad’s 57 Brown. Now everyone loves it.

No updated pics yet, but I've heard through the grapevine that Jim has the bodywork done and is on his third round of blocking. He'll wait until the weather warms up a bit, but should be ready to spray color in 3-4 months.

The interior and body work look great. Wish I was that far along.

Hope to see more updates on this one.
