Checking in from New Jersey

Hello All! My name is Joe and I am in the process of bringing my Dad’s 1979 Silver L-82 back to life after sitting for 27 years. Engine and drivetrain is finally in order. Now I’m looking for paint that won‘t cost me an arm and a leg. Lol. Great to be a part of such an informative site. Thank you, Joe

Welcome aboard Joe! Love the 79. How about just restoring the paint to it's best as it is? Natural patina is big now and they are only original once. Just a thought.
