Very nice. You are in the home stretch now. Are you gonna add some graphics or stripes? Trannyman's car is just one color with no stripes. Looks like it just rolled in off the freeway. Very stealthy. But it is light blue. That may be hard to pull off with that high impact orange.

What have your temps and humidity been like when you were spraying? I had a paint job go south on me several years ago due to humidity. The clear got a milky and never recovered, had to sand it off and respray. Trying to avoid that this time. This red paint is pretty expensive.

Mine is in bare metal with a couple more rust holes to fix and finish filling the gas cap hole. Seems once we corn cob blasted it, lots of cancer showed up where it wasn't before. Some areas were paper thin but not rusted through yet. Took a week off and spend 4 days welding and fixin rust. Looking pretty good now if I could only get a break in the weather! Talking about snowflakes in the news this morning for next week. Damn global warming LOL.

Default Great Work!

I been following this close. Was the area around the front and rear windows solid or did you have to repair them, if so you did good. The reason for the questions is I'm starting another 67 Buick GS400 and realize I have lots to do. It is far from what my current race car was when I started on it. I built it from start to finish (it was a running-driving car) in 7 months, including frame off and back half with moly cage. This new car will be a street car so no back half or cage. I wish I was as far along as you. Keep at it, looking forward to seeing it finished.
