Woof woof
He's almost as tall as the 850! Haha! There's another one at the shop, but white and black, just like him.

Extreme redo: nice job! I'm keeping my 93 850 going as well, mainly for winter driving in Minnesota. Miles are around early 200k's, it's been pretty reliable. Clear coat failure on the hood and roof are pretty bad. Color is teal or emerald green, quite radiant, still. I've toyed with a repaint, unfortunately don't have a buddy with a shop or an extra couple of grand or more for decent work; you did luck out there!

What kind of black paint are you using on the trim?
