I primered and painted the '63 Vette this afternoon and it looks so much better. No trash in the paint, which is a good sign! I used the same paint-Dupli-Color Emerald Green Metallic. More Split Window to come...

I have started the foiling process. Since my foil is several years old, I have resorted to using Micro Metal Foil Adhesive before I cut my foil. Just another step in my process. The hood vents got some Aluminium BMF. More Split Window to come...
