Project HALLE part2

after months of having the car inoperable...she is now back on the road. it's been running good lately (i just need to fix the a/c) and i've been able to save some money from the ever rising gas prices.
i painted one of the fenders with a rattle can. got the paint code and took it to a paint store and had them mix it for me. $14 something a can ain't cheap, so i might have to paint the hood black (no matter how much i don't want to). i want a solid color, but yeah..... it looks good in pics but it doesn't quite shine in person. i might need more clear coat and more paint to get that glossy look.
