A couple pics

Pics with my new rear suspension.  Once I do the front I will decide what size tires to run, and/or go with taller rear springs.  Now that the back is nice and tight the front feels even worse.  Cant really tell, but I painted a spare set of foglight covers and slapped them on.  These look ok from 5 feet away, perfect for dailys, Ive got a nicer set for shows...................someday.

Nice car, and nice work. Have you been in an accident with that car? The rear quarter has been repainted.

Just out or curriosity is it even possible to paint only one panel on a metalic painted car and have it match? I've never seen a car with metalic paint have body work done and the panel match. Usually to get it to match they have to paint the whole car.
