Re: my '78 before spraying
Wickid ride man. You have done more or less exactly what im doing to mine. I smoothed my fenders also, have a set of golf side repeaters also, but chose to settle on uno side repeaters for the front and use the golf on the sides. Awsome ride. Enjoy it.

More than meets the eye!
