I like the sheen.. I don’t want the clear coat glossy look, or even the glossy single stage acrylic enamels; want more the old school enamel after 10 years look. Is there UV inhibitors in the base coat

No, I just shot the base. If it needs to be reshot to keep it from being ashy, so be it.

Got my S10 tilt column modified to fit. Had to relocate the gm column mounted dimmer switch and ignition switch. Added length to the ignition rod and cut the dimmer rod. Now there is neither interference with the brake pedal nor the pedal bracket. I would have used the stock column and wheel if they didn't need every peice replaced.

I've been at a bit of an impass since I've been short a couple of very important parts, like the hood and windshield frame. I had a windshield frame but I had blasted it only to discover how incredibly terrible it was. Most parts I found were either too far away or too expensive. But, I happened upon a craigslist ad for the exact thing I needed. Another parts machine.

The jamb tag says 1973, the windshield frame, hardtop sides and disc brake front differential are all later. The hood is in very good condition and the jump seats it came with are in very good condition. Sadly there were no front seats, roll bar, top shell or rear doors, and it came with are title. Pretty good for under 2k
