Love it! Hugger orange is such a great color. Good luck getting it assembled by spring.

The body and paint work are high end! Attended many Goodguys events and could say without a doubt this car can sit beside some of best built cars and definately belong. As for the wheels, you're right on Jeff - the original design team at Fikse nailed it, timeless piece.

Congrats Steve it does look great indeed bud....

"pro66tour" you're right his paint work has stood up with the very best at GG events for years... As a matter of fact his work has been on the cover of "Chevy High",, shown at SEMA on multiple cars/occasions, judged at the Optima in no less than 5 separate cars, both full feature + Cameo shots in Camaro performers and on Television in R U faster than a Redneck.. Mike "Pablo" Tersigni is no stranger to this game with over 30 years experience and in fact the guy that actually created "Candy Cherry Black" as a color/recipe using house of colors paint.. He is well regarded within the old school folks there and is likely the best painter in my opinion in the city,, if not region period...

'Tazz..' That's an impressive portfolio, and excited about the prospect of Mike laying the paint on my car at some point in the future, and so close to home too!

Yeah it's awesome having him right here in our backyard indeed... He's a really fun guy as well so it always been great dealing with him too.

Man this car just "does it" for me. I' cant quite put my finger on it of "what" exactly it is, quite likely its "the sum of the total" cause everything is just right.
Great wheels, great paint (color/stripes/quality)....

Finish it up soon....

Mike, I have a pretty good idea why Steve's car 'does it' for ya…

It's the same thing that happened to you (and all of us) the first time you laid eyes on a muscle car as a kid (and maybe a first gen), only this time you know what it's truly capable of. The spectrum of protour is quite wide, but knowing Steve, like me - It's about keeping the car looking like it rolled off the factory floor with subtle changes, with a wheel and stance combination that screems, "It just has to be this way!"
