Default Update on the 68 GTO

It's been a long time since I've posted on here but just thought I would give an update on my car. After dealing with the "engine problems" I had, I've been steadily working on my 68 GTO. Since I last posted, I've done, floor pan and trunk pan work, installed a 4l80e trans, Dakota Digital gauges, SPC front upper control arms and I just got the car back from paint and body. I went from what was supposed to be "Solar Red" (it was too orange) to Blue Charcoal Poly. Had some rust repair work but was glad to find out that the fenders and quarters were original GM parts. After paint and bodywork, I ended up taking it to a shop that specializes in paint correction for wet sanding, cut/buff and polish. I think it came out pretty good. I'm looking for lower quarter panel molding/trim if anyone has a pair and is willing to sell. Hopefully I'll be getting the new black vinyl top installed soon!
