I won't post photos yet, but after two good coats, it's looking really nice. I had to fill in chips I missed after I did the first coat...so much got sanded down, glazed over, and primered again. So technically, I've got the second coat on it. I've noticed a few dents I didn't see before due to the dull paint, and with the semi-gloss, they don't show too much...but they're there. And, since the inner panel is in the way, I can't get behind it to tap them out. So, the dents will remain for now.

When I have the hood done, I'll post pictures of it. It will be a week or so, due to the extra curing time I'm giving it due to temperatures. I think that this is the way to go...inexpensive paint, not too labor intensive, and a semi-gloss, near matte, finish.

The old girl is going to look great when finished.
