Paint coverage would depend on the painter and varies from car to car. Starlight, I sent you a PM.

yes, Matt M hooked me up with a beautiful pair. Boss had the M20 (even out of a Lucerne Blue '70 Formy) that I'll be using.

Can somebody recommend a valve train for my Ram Air IV? I need to know best supplier of rockers, cam, lifters, locks, retainers, springs, all. Does a roller cam slip right in with the existing cam bearings? Specific cam bearings required? Is that the best way to go? best grind of roller? Supplier? Thanks in advance.

Pulled this puppy out of the trunk - think it's the first time it's seen the light of day since Norwood, Ohio 45 years ago....

Had the car buffed (see previous post) but this rust rash on the passenger door always bothered me, but didn't know if I could get the color to match the original paint. The guys at Muscle Car Alley had a go at it. Color match is awesome.
