Another small step in the right direction on Cale's '55. Any night with color in the gun is a good night!

Nice looking work Cale, keep some pictures coming for us please. Neptune Green reminds me of Emerald turquoise. Cool 😎.

Yesterday we put the trunk lid back on and aligned the gaps for the final time and moved on to gapping the doors. Both doors had window frames that were not square to the roof pillars. These were pretty easy to flex into shape.

We're not going to do high-end SEMA car level gapping perfection, but it should look a lot better than these cars ever were from the factory.
