59 Euro

Just visited my 59 Euro today. Painted in L335 Capri Blue single stage paint. Very happy with color match and quality of bodywork and paint. Still have to paint doors, fenders, hood and deck lid, then sand and buff. It has been a long wait, but well worth it. Can't wait to get her home and begin re-assembly!

Thanks for the encouragement! This is my first attempt at a frame up restoration. Looking for some advice on the re-assembly. I have the pan with suspension near ready. I am afraid of damaging or scratching the new paint. What is the best method to proceed from here? I could leave the body on its roller stand and assemble the doors, fenders, hood, electrical, trim, bumpers then attach the body to the frame lastly and complete the interior. Otherwise I could drop the body onto the pan and restore from there.
What has worked best for those who have been through a complete restoration?
Thanks
