Looks outstanding! Almost like wet black chrome. :up
Definitely looking forward to more pics but please knock the file size down a bit if you can. Some of us are still using the bear skins and stone knives dial up access.

First of all I`d like to say thank you to all of the compliments... it is truely the most satisfying when others notice and appreciate your work.
I went absolutley nuts with the new digital camera and the new detail - I took about 175 pics. I put a nice selection of the pics taken outdoors in my Gallery. I have more I`ll post that were taken in the garage - a totally different look.
countrysquire - No snow up in the NW part of Houston, Sunday was absolutley gorgeous. I have the bonus of having this car be a garage queen.
Scottwax - I`m thrilled to get my first critique from you, thanks for the kind words. I aimed for about 250K for file size, should I go smaller? I noticed your pics are about 750 pixels wide and if I go that high at high quality then I get pics about 300K. Do you recomend a smaller res or lower quality?
360RamGuy01 - here you go, I have a slightly more updated list at work I`ll swap out tomorrow but this should give you an idea. The car is 100% built from ground up - out of the thousands of parts the car contains I can count on one hand what`s left from stock.
