I really admire Joe and the dedication and work he did on his stunning, eye popping beast of a yellow car. It’s one thing to restore a copo or other solid lifter bb car where many examples exist to see details. But a lower horse AC car? It was an incredibly incredible sight to behold. Joe is a perfectionist extraordinaire. A fun guy. And great to finally meet. Congrats amigo!

----AC cars are the worst restoration wise. I'm too old to do another! Loved your car, Joe! It's a piece of artwork. Congrats! Wish I could have met you but you must have been rambling around when I came by.....Bill S

Joe's car and Jim's Rats Nest COPO popped the most. I really dig that yellow Joe, did you say it was Daytona?

Joe, I went back thru this looking for the specific paint you guys used on the black out. How is it looking after time, and if you are happy with it can you share what you used? Thanks.

The entire car was done in PPG single stage including the black. They flattened it more than what I wanted but it still fit into what we know. It still looks wonderful. Doing an AACA points meet on Saturday.....Joe

Thought I would post some pictures. This is a hobby & not a job so sometimes I don't seem to get a lot done. Doors are part way together & heater-a/c back together. That was a little tricky with only one person. I had a bad regulator which I was able to find thanks to this group. Starting on the 28th or so I will start putting emblem, handles, locks etc back together. The smell of new paint is almost gone from the garage....Joe
