That looks fantastic. Is it black? Or some kind of awesome Alien Gunmetal Alloy Pewter. It looks like the latter.

Very nice. Congratulations. Looking forward to seeing it all done, back together, and rollin'.

did you just spray the second and third layers of paint on or did you have to sand those?

Factory black,three coats clear. Bake 120-160 for 90 minutes?
Wet sand 1400 then 2000.
No sanding between coats. All shot in under two hours.
McCombe motors is doing a great job and I watched alot of the spraying.
