I'm not too talkative on here, but read many posts. I've been working on my car off and on, and have the paint done. I have returned from Iraq a few months ago and ready to prep for spring and summer 2009. Here is my 68 350 HO 4 speed with new paint. I will have the stripe put on during Thanksgiving and will post new pictures.
My license plate made the Nov/Dec 2007 edition of Pontiac Enthusiast, page 17. It's not 3 Firebirds in my garage but I'm still working on that.
I'm glad to be home and look forward to catching up on some reading.

was this color orig. to the car. it's very nice. mines the same color. wasn't sure about it at first but love it more and more every day. thanks for your service!
Looks great! I bet you can't wait till it's ready for the road! Great work and Thanks to you and everyone serving, we'll all be giving thanks to you around our home this Holiday week-end!
The paint looks great. Glad you made it home. I truly appreciate you serving and I'm glad you get to spend some time on the car. Looking forward to seeing the new pics too. Do you have the interior finished? I would like to see pics of that too.

The interior is finished and I will post pics. Not sure if many of you remember this car for sale a few years ago on epay. It had a green stripe on it. Interior is all original and very well kept, needs refreshing but well kept. I have rebuilt the motor and had the stripe removed and new paint.
Since the motor rebuild, it is all numbers matching.

Sorry, Yes it is original color. This is April Gold with Ivy Gold interior. Originally came with a white stripe and will receive its fresh new white stripe soon.
I have the car back from the shop with the stripe on. My wife and I took it out for a ride today (Christmas Eve) and took a few pics. There will be more to follow.
