Thought I would share a few pics of the final paint and assembly for the 100. Five years into this project and seeing it in final paint for the first time was a thrill to say the least. Still a lot to do but at least one major hurdle is almost over.

Color looks a little gray due to lights in the shop but in the Sun it's got a really nice look.

Looks Great Michael. Hopefully mine will look at about that point soon. Just need to fit the left rear fender, which is way off, as the right rear was. Then all my body construction will be done. Must then pull engine and trans and detail the engine bay. New suspension build-up, and details yet. Lets see, 2 years into a 2 year project, and much more to do. Oh well, ya got to love the hobby.

That looks great, nice thing about 100, with minimal trim, simple electrics (disregarding the turn signal control head and control box) and side curtains it is a relatively easy car to get back together.

Good luck and have fun!

Looks great Michael. Can't understand why you rushed the job though :wink:
It took me 12 years...

The car really does gray in color, what color is it really?

Thanks, It's a rolling restoration fron this pont on so who knows how long....

it's really Ice Blue Metalic or some times gray metalic, it's a very funny color that way.
