We have had the car for about five years, and other than changing the interior to black, and switching bumpers, we have not done anything to the car..... until now!
She is at the body shop getting "bright violet effect" paint and bodywork. Very pleased how the work is being done and quality. BTW it is Maaco that is doing it, and this one has put out some very nice cars including a AAR cuda, that is what made us decide to go with them.
Unfortunatly we could not afford to get the vinyl top replaced at the same time (unfortunatly two areas that have a bubble that will need attention ) but maybe this fall, need to re-chrome the bumpers, either find some 15x7 steel wheels or have the current ones blasted and painted body color with some dog dish caps, white bumble bee stripe, and misc missing trim pieces (rocker chrome spear, fender turn signals that mount on top, maybe new headlight bezels).
Just had to share as we were thinking about selling it since it only got driven once last year since my wife didn't want to put it in the local car cruise since it did not look as nice as most others, but now it should be different
Car is from California with 87K on it, all service records since new, and hoping to change it from grandma looking to nice cruiser
On with the pics.....
Shop production manager said it might be finished next week. We are in no rush, but if it is, I will add more pics
