    I've heard it's not easy being green...

    Well, this is pretty easy on the eyes... just a preliminary shot from the painter - more (and better quality ) pics to come tomorrow when I stop by on my way to work.

    '65 - '66 Ford Ivy Green on a black 2K epoxy sealer base.

    Later,

    Looks great. Steve M. had a green can that was affectionately called Kermit, now there will be one in IL.

    Very nice. I've been thinking about a similar color for my (yet-to-be-started) car. Dark Moss Green seems to be a similar Ford color from that era.

    I love it when it has a beautiful shine even before it's buffed. Wow!
