Tough decision. What color(s) have you decided to go with?

Yeah, you can say that again Vall. My color choice changes like the weather around here. I know I'll be second guessing myself right up until I see it finished. I wanted a shade of orange like Atomic Orange on the newer vettes or a Rotor Glow red/orange like on Mitsubishis for the longest time but now not so much. I have always liked Cortez Silver but only only Z's. Steel City Gray is another color I liked on vettes but not so sure about on my car. I know I want the tail panel blacked out to match the spoiler up front but that's all I'm sure about. LOL. I've seen alot of great colors on new Toyotas/Scions this past year but I just don't have a clear favorite. Fortunately there's still time to change my mind about a hundred more times.

With my life of leisure I spent the day chasing parts and working on the Austin. Got all the parts to do my brake lines today. Braided/coated stainless flex lines with the regular old steel lines for everyhing else. With the metric Subaru master and GM brakes at all 4 wheels, I had to make up lines that are metric on one end, and std. 3/8 on the other.
I also got my lines run and the trans cooler installed, plus built a new bracket to lower my alternator so it wont hit the frontend when it closes. Little oops with my last one; wouldn't clear the edge of the hood!
And with limited camera skills (and no help from my wife! ) I tried to do some video with the 327 running. Here's my feeble attempt.



And this one is really disjointed:

Good one Damon! That really distorted one was actually a restart after I ran out of fuel from not turning on the fuel pump. Somehow I missed the entire start up and walk around???
