    Pretty much just a daily. Nothing special for it at the moment. Just want it up and running for the time being.

    That is AWESOME! Gives me even more motivation to freshen mine up. If they were RWD it would be my streeter of choice, no joke.

    How many cans did you use to get it to this stage?

    Sweet. I'll have to try that when I can get my hands on a heat gun. Cheers for that.

    Plelz - 7 cans went into that. I bought 8 to give me room for error or in case I needed to respray a panel or just for general touch-ups. I only did a single, thick coat on the beaver panel and door jambs as they're not visible from the exterior anyway. I'd definitely do two coats if anyone else wanted to follow this, cause the colour comes out a lot more consistent after the second. For $56 though, I'd have to say it came out alright.

    Bryan: Yeah, I will when I can get a hold of some, since they seem to be in short supply at the moment cause a mate bought out our supplier. Otherwise, fade shouldn't bother me too much as it costs $21 to lay down another coat.

    joeschmo_57: Haha, maybe later. I've gotta focus on getting it running first, then I'll start getting some random trinkets to decorate it with. It'll definitely turn heads though.
