O.K..............One of the little things that bothered me with the Biscayne was that there was some Minor Orange Peel in the paint......"And".....you guy's know how that tends to keep the Stomach churning.......well....I can now say that the Biscayne and Me are now happy......Orange Peel gone..........Now I can spend a couple of weeks detailing and getting it ready for Vettefest...(The Car Season is almost here)

Glad it's looking much better for you Ken. I know how good it makes you feel to get those defects out and see a beautiful smooth surface.
