I had one like this many moons ago

I found this old crate while cruising around looking for pictures to use with my photoshop program...it happens to be just like one I owned when I was17.....The body of the car I owned was actually in pretty good shape ....but it needed cleaning up real bad.......a half a dozen school pals and myself painted the car one school evening ...it came up pretty good with a few coats of primer grey and then we finished off the wheels in pink. One of my friends folks had a small out of town gas service station and they let me use the bay to paint the car....o ya.....we got after it with brushes and its amazing the sin we hid with that grey primer paint....it looked pretty sharp for a fast job....the primer is flat finish and really cleaned the old car up....(36 plymouth)... in the bottom picture I did major repairs ..... I can truthfully say that is what the old car looked like after we gave it a couple of coats of charcol grey....... the paint was expensive ...2 quarts at 7 bucks each.
