Default A8 will be done within a week. She's like new.

new windows, new panels, new mouldings, new blah blah blah.

See, the people that have never painted a car will have a hard time getting this, but I will explain. When the paint is new everything else isn't. That is it, haha.

The car will be at watefest ( so will the A6 )if anyone wants to see it in person

One more teaser:

Default Are you doing this all yourself?

My buddy did the exact same thing with his 84 vette, it took him over a year to get everything done properly.

Default myself? hahaah as if I ever have that time:)

I work WAY too much.

It is being done by a shop that has done custom work for me before. Most is covered my an insurance claim for (lots) minor damage from a wind storm.

... but there is a lot extra which is out of my pocket..
