Geroge's car!
I drove it last week for a quick test drive, reassembling the dashboard then on to the body shopBeen a while since you posted, but I feel I have to comment. As a new owner of a 1961 Dodge Dart Pioneer with those same way cool fins, I saw, "What an awesome car" I hope you still have it and someday I can see it at an event someday!
Sorry to repeat myself, but, "Way cool!"
I told the shop it should be "Refrigerator White", but I am a little nervous, have only seen these pictures. It looks like Spinnaker White................. I hope not.What shade of white did you use?
