That's purdy. I'd throw it on my Coronet any time!
 
I wouldn't sand anymore. You may have removed the texture as mentioned before. The color looks good in the picture. The original organisol used a metallic to get the texture which gave the slight grey hue to the black.

Thanks for you advice it really was bad before that why I sanded .
I am just using a very fine pad .
Trying to get uniform sand lines if that makes sense in pictures it looks better than up close and personal.
But I think it will pas for a Saturday night cruise night car .
I have a before and after I will post .
I am not sure what they guy used who painted it .

Well, based on The question in the first post and picture it looks good to run.

But now that I see the last post here and before picture I like that too. They did a good job of replicating the textured look it would have had from the factory, just a titch too shiny, but I would have run it that way too!
