You may not be a pro but you set the bar pretty high for the rest of us novices! It's looking great! Nice Job!

Lots of internet searching, and like everybody says your canvas has to be straight before any paint goes on
I have spent almost a year doing bodywork, of course off and on
What I tell my kids dont be afraid just do it , lifes learning lessons. No being afriad to mess up

Looking fantastic!!!
Could not look better!

I hear ya! I had originally intended to get mine done for october. But, I keep finding flaws I can straighten out. So I keep going around and around and around..... My best friend keeps telling me I'm such a perfectionist but I just tell him it's something I want to take pride in! I know it'll never be a 100 points "auto".. I just don't want it to look like a hack did it either!

It's funny too that people think I "do it all" around cars when the truth is I just keep trying to do it all!
