Hi Steve, I have to agree with Hugh on this, he seems to be right on with his way of thinking. If you wait and make it to perfect you will lose many years of enjoyment and might even begin to resent the car or heaven forbid, wind up with another Imperial that looks better so now you have two projects and less money to work on them. Also, if it is that perfect, you will be afraid to drive it or wind up in jail from killing the %$#@$%^T& rotten person who parked to close and just whacked your beautiful paint job with their door. You can get a diamond compound and use a dremel tool to polish the small chrome and it will look pretty good when you are done and maybe just have the bumpers plated. Besides, no one but us nuts will really know if it is a great or a decent paint job. Good Luck Allan R 62 vert in process 63 vert soon to be in process
