Default Re: Hood Painting Question

Originally, I believe the hoods wee painted as an assembly, However, I recently painted the hood for a fine point restoration I am doing. I paint it as individual pieces. I did not get any chipping when I assembled it.

The bodies were also painted all assembled with doors and deck lid in place.

I am sure if we could see a NEW Model A Ford right from the assembly line the paint work may not be up to what we may consider a fine point restoration should be. If you could stand back a few feet, I am sure the cars looked just fine.
