Nice, Shiny Black

 This will be brief.  Before painting starts today, let's check how it looks.  With two coats, it has dried to a fairly good black color.  I must say that it doesn't look as uneven when viewed in person as it does in this picture.  The lighting in the barn makes picture taking difficult.

 
After a few hours of painting, which goes faster now that the canvas doesn't soak up the paint like it used to, the still-wet paint looks nice and dark.  But if I had it to do over again, I'd be tempted to try the Sherwin-Williams method of dumping a huge bucket of paint over the car and letting it run down on all sides.  It would be quicker.

Be that as it may, I was left with a couple of hours to spend sorting parts and disassembling a few more seat frames from the 300.

You know, I can see you sitting there right now at your computer.  I bet you're a coward.  I bet you don't have the courage, the intestinal fortitude to visit IRM's Train of Terror tomorrow night.   Admit it, you're a wimp.   Or prove me wrong.
