Small update. Car has been sitting waiting for a while now. The paint shop is pretty busy with winter fender-benders, so I'll have to wait a little more.
Decided to do some of the paint preb myself, so armed with lots of materials from the paintshop I spend quite some time getting the finish to my liking.
The car was basically straight to begin with so it just needed a thin coat of primer and filler. 2-3 rounds of filler and bloksanding and it's ready for the final Work at the paintshop.
One of the paint supplyers came up with some paint samples based on the original 71/72 paint codes for the red, but I wasn't sure if they are right (seemed too dark), so he's right now analyzing some remains of the original 71 red on an old headlight bucket I had lying around. It's kind of orange-red with a brownish tone.
