73 Mach I goes to paint!

[scarpent1]

My 73 Mach I is finally going to paint after many years. I have another thread where I have been rebuilding my C4 transmission so I started this thread to cover the finishing of the bodywork and paint. See below for pics of the car after it arrived at the shop!

I remember that of all the update pictures I got during the resto this was the most exciting.
