Looks really nice! You can't beat the backyard job for value. If you prep it right it will look heaps better than the dodgey $1000 respray from your local panel beaters.

nice car, you've done alot of work and it's paying off..
you should save some money and get your trim and mirror plastic chromed, i dont know who does it or really how much, but i'd say it shouldnt be too expensive, it just ruins the whole look at the moment in silver, you have chrome wheels and silver trim, im not a fan of chrome on older cars but each to their own if youre going chrome then stick with it and chrome the trim, or i'd just sell the chrome rims and keep the black wheels you have on the front, but thats just me hahaha
good luck!
doesnt look like you need it thou
