That is a beauty, and I admire your attention to detail.

We don't see many shell pearl cars - a true rarity.

I am always willing to communicate.

Thanks Jim. I am waiting on my authenticity guide I ordered when I joined the CLC in early November. It has been a challenge to gain access here and to other features of the CLC.
