Looks great, I'm jealous of your paint. Should have buffed off those cobra emblems though

Looks great from here! I bet it looks even better in person, cameras never seem to do a glossy paint job justice. But at the same time, the opposite is true, it can hide alot of imperfections

I had the gold GT emblems and the gold was flaking badly and I just dont like the looks of the GT emblems. My plans are to eventually make it into a clone with bumpers and a wing.

Stock paint, and yes there are lots of imperfections.

The look of dirty is because there are quite a few tiny rock chips on the bumper cover because the previous owner lived on a gravel road for a year. Needless to say I have been spending lots of time on the paint to restore as best as possible until I can have painted again.

I would love to have one, but I just can not afford the 3000 bones he wants for it at this time.

Thanks guys...I spent a lot of time on it trying to work the paint to make it better. I do it every summer. Next year I plan on tearing into the engine compartment and undercarriage to get that cleaned up. The interior is already nearly spotless. I am a fanatic about keeping it clean.
