Ever notice how many yellow 914's have window tint, even the driver does not want to be seen in it (IMG:style_emoticons/default/poke.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/popcorn[1].gif)

Lou, just googled the Blue Pearl, nice! My rubicon is Deep Water Blue a bit darker.

I have to admit that when I finally gave up on the stock colour, it was hard to decide and commit to a different colour. I ended up going Viper green/Emerald green from the original Saraha Beige. Mine is not going to be a CW car so I went with something I could live with for a long time.

Good luck and your car will look amazing.

I picked up a Rich Johnson Six Mount awhile back and I want to remove the original Four mounts like Sir Andy did on his car when I get back to work on it again. The economy is still pretty rough up here and I even considered putting it on the market. So, I'm in kinda a hold pattern right now. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)

Following some of these build threads, sure makes we want to get back on it though.

Hi guys, here is a recent picture showing some paint on my old car, it's great to have someone take this project over and see it through its completion. I do miss it.

Body and paint is a ton of work without the in depth knowladge and power tools. I spent months on mine. Filling and sanding in the front yard. The final outcome was great but I have no desire to do it again.
