Handing your baby over to someone else can be stressful. Going back to the original colour?
Yes,the original color Turbine Bronze. I had good day AND I trust Richard with my car since I had seen several of his cars that he painted.

Leaburn, you really need a better camera! Congratulations on all the progress!
Thanks Chris!
My camera is old.Been using it ever since I started documenting the Boab"s progress! That includes being dropped,banged up,sat on,left in the glovebox,bottom door for batteries I have to tape shut to keep the memory card in place.
Also left in my duffel bag at -20 in the trunk--you get the picture albeit a fuzzy one!!

Whew! I thought the blurriness of your pictures was my monitor going bad. . . Very impressed with your work and your car. And Turbine Bronze is just about my favorite MOPAR color. Really looking forward to seeing your car painted.
More pics of the hood repair. Despite being rust free and had original paint on it,it had a nasty dent in it. Probably something got dropped on it at one time.
Using the hood trim as a reference,it now looks much better....

Prep work has started on the tail panel...
I helped Richard and spent three hours stripping the Tail panel to bare metal,and prepped the door jams. Two guys makes that 6 hours.Very productive day!!
All wrapped up ready to spray primer.
Big car takes a lot of time masking,phew! LOL!

Last coat of primer is on.
Laid down well and flash time was good.

Next step was remove all the doors and hinges,hood,front clip,and trunk lid to prep/paint the edges and also easier to finish the door jams.
A lot of progress in the short time the car left home.
