THe work is great. Love it. The idea... well dont think i would ever ruin a perfect body like that.

I woulda stuck with the gloss yellow. If your having issues with cold weather, have everything in side and warm. and attached to something you can easily pick up and move around with out touching wet paint. Run out side, spray a quick light coat, and run it back inside to dry. and repeat. Will work just fine.

Personally i think id start the restore now.. you obviously have the skills to lay out a nice paint job. Id love to see it done!
