We have paint!

Dad came down for the weekend again. We drove down to Temecula to the have the newly painted body mounted to the car. The paint turned out perfect. The color is awesome and the paint job is truely flawless. Thanks go out to Jeff Miller Customs for the great job they did on the paint.
