I picked this one up about five years ago. My dad just did the paint for me and I'm working on the rest of it...slowly! V/r Shawn

Centari? It is great paint. Very authentic look. No longer available here unfortunately. Used it on all my projects for years.

Your Dad is one mean M/F painter!!! Looks great. Keeps costs down. Have you checked out the price of paint and labour from a "commercial" professional lately? Guess not... Is that your Dad's trade? Nice. I'll send him my stuff from Canada? Ha!!

My dad was an autobody/painter for 50 years. This is who taught me to paint although I've only done it sporadically over the last 40+ years. Not Centari--do they even make it anymore? V/r Shawn

Great colors. That reverse on the frame is going to look great. Looks like your dad a wonderful job. You are a lucky man to have in in your corner. Can't wait to see more.

Cool...…… I can't see detail in a general long shot, but I assume he's a craftsman and fussy like us old school dudes. I get the feeling you are a bit detail orientated too. Not a bad thing.
