I stopped by the shop yesterday to check on the car, and they have almost all the jambs and undersides done. The pics do not do the color justice, but you get the idea. We're hoping for full paint within 2 weeks. Best I get going on the motor and grill. Full pictures here:

Well, car got sprayed. The shade of green color turned out great. Unfortunately, it is not a good even application. No tiger striping or anything, just patches of light and dark blotches all over the car. Pictures don't show it though. Hopefully it can be scuffed and reshot. If not, it all has to come off and restart with primer/sealer. Puts us back months... :-( At least the shop owner has stepped up and will cover all new materials and labor.

All they have to do is bake it or give it some time to cure & reply the green.
