Unfortunately car was dropped off already and its about 2 hrs away.
Worst part was when i bought the car in 2000 June in Birmingham, AL, I inherited acid etching on all horizontal surfaces. Also, the motor must have jumped up once because I see 2 stress cracks on the hood - one near palstic intake and another near passenger side latch.
The car has some wavyness on both doors (never been hit though).
So, I asked for block sanding (after matching all panels) before the shoot and wet sand before cut.
ofcourse, abter one week I will end up with spyder webbing - black car!

Must be a common problem, I've got cracks in those places too. Can't wait to see the final product!

If you want some help, let me know.

Re: 94 #256 New Paint

Any chance at new pictures?
