I flew out to California to inspect it. Almost done. I got quite the bargain on ebay. For less than the cost of polishing my fender trim I got a freshly polished set including the hard to find front piece. I've got a mixture of early and late fenders, front early, rear late so I'll drill some holes in the front for the trim. And the color I'm considering. It is 50/51 sportsman green. As you can tell from my avatar I like loud colors for woodies. I bought a qt(before I buy 2 gallons) of 41 green looked like army green, 40 green too dark, and 57 seamist green and didn't them as much. I don't think auto color library got the 40 and 41 green right but I didn't like what they sent. Panels will be figured maple on the outside and plain maple on the inside.

40 green 57 green, 41 green
