Why didn't you tell me this about 5 years ago. I had the Dupont TOO BRIGHT
YELLOW for the 510 custom mixed. Two gallons of color, the reducer, the
clear and primer were around $1100, IIRC. Ouch! But the car definitely jumps
out at you. Now if it were only finished and I could actually drive it.
I've pretty much decided that I'll do the roadster (when I do the frame off
in a couple of years) in the metallic silver that Honda's using on the
S2000, probably with several coats of clear for extra depth. What the hell,
it's only money. ;>)
