It's amazing what a little fingernail polish remover can do...



I do always have a hard time with the door jams and other fine lines though.

It's a Billboard Marvel car. The Montego strips real nicely, too. Too bad it has red wheels and a blue interior!

If that had a black vinyl top, it would match one I've seen around here!

Doing fine, we were in Florida visiting my wife's parents, so I have'nt been looking at HT until a few days ago. I slammed a pothole yesterday and bent a Borbet wheel on my VW, I need to find a place to have it repaired. I found a place in Waltham that can do it, but hope to find one closer.
