I drove my car around for a year with bondo and primer spots all over while going to school doing all the body work myself, and it finally paid off!!!! Some pics taken with my phone. will take with real camera once its cut and buffed.

That is going to be an awesome-looking Elky when you finish!
Post more photos as you progress, especially with the engine compartment.

:cool2: Nice! Are you going to put a pinstripe between the two colors or leave it as is? If so, what color?

I'm having a hard time thinking of a color to lay down to separate the two. I might end up ordering the chrome molding for it.

I was thinking a thin stripe of a bronze or silver would go well. Perhaps one of each, stacked on each other.

You know I actually like the idea of the bronze a lot. Thanks.

Solid. Glad to be of help. Can't wait to see when it's done.

Yes, Bronze would look nice, but then I like Bronze. Your Elk's looking good, nice work...
