Thanks guys , glad I'm not the only crazy one lol ....Gary I had the paint matched and they added some flat ting agent they called it , and it's amazing how close it is. Just plan on leaving it as is and blending to whats there once the fender tip and running boards are finished . I will post a pick in the fall when shes loaded with pumpkins ! I really like fall festival car shows . I have another month or two of floor pan and inside bed metal work also .
