Almost complete, should be done tomorrow. I built this from scratch. I've always wanted one but didn't want to spend the crazy process for them. I ended up spending $1,046 for all the parts. I think I did alright...

For paint i used self etching primer, Rust-Oleum Apple Red & Eastwood 2-part epoxy clear coat.

1 question, on the ID plate I bought it says model A11. Is that a different model than the 90s series?

Can you show us a close up of the ID plate?
Great job,but I would've omitted using a clear coat of any kind,as it's too shiny now for my tastes and just the paint alone would've had more then enough clear coat protection in it.Plus the paint jobs were never that glossy in their day.
Love the shade you chose too.
