    it is now home in the garage ready for final assembly. When we got to the paint shop it was sitting out front waiting for us. The paint is amazing but very difficult to photograph, the color changes with light and angle. In bright light it looks red and in shadows it looks like merlot wine.

    this picture is one of the better ones.
