Also be sure to check out Reranch.com and its forums if you need a little guidance; one of those guys was a lifesaver for me.

Uploaded the final pics before polishing. Has to dry for 3 days, after my dad polishes he will be sending it to me where I will be piecing it back together and posting the final product.

That's about 1000% better than the toffee apple red it was to start with. Nice.
Good deals done with all these guys

Thanks guys. I really owe the credit to my dad as he finished it up after I left with the gold itself and the wet sanding and such.
