Thats Gracelands old car, and it was pretty good considering everything was done in his garage. Yeah it had a few issues but when he sold it it didn't have any engine issues, the only real isssue was the diff i think.

Me and him did it with the worlds smallest compressor that gave up working properly halfway through, so considering it actually had some paint on was a miracle

I reckon with a fair bit of time flatting and polishing it would come up to a half acceptable standard, it's just we didn't have the time
