Went out and picked up a cutting compound and extra 3000 grit sand paper. I'll probably look at trying it on Sunday or some evening next week

I will get better pics later this week, but spent most of the day yesterday putting everything back on in the interior and then hand wet sanding the car. 800, 1000, 1500, 2000, 2500, 3000 grit. Took a long time but I am hoping the end result is worth it. In the meantime here is a pic of it in a matte green before I hit it with a cutting compound and polish this week.

All that's left is chrome around the wheel arches, exhaust, and tracking down a burning smell. Got a lot of new parts so hard to tell where it's coming from.

Great first restoration. Feel like you learned a lot?
