Wow...someone has been busy over the past couple of months. Progress is moving along nicely and the car is looking great. It's going to look killer with that new paint over the next few months. I'll be watching it.

Default Sealer and Paint

Finally got the Sealer laid down Friday and Painted the car today. Had some initial trouble as the color has alot of metallic. But after some adjustments to technique and my dad offering 40yrs of experience/tips I figured it out. Car has very little dirt and honestly the color is Beautiful. Im painting the tail cove black tomorrow. Hood and Trunk are next weekend.

Default Blacked Out Rear Cove

I had learned the car was just body paint in the Cove, but I like the look of the Black.

Hope things have been OK with you. I HAVE to see the pics of this car done. Super nice restoration.
The build date on the frame is exactly the same as my '66 SS, but mine was built in Atlanta and had the black out tail panel. May still have been painted at the dealer, but it was over the base color when I sanded it all down.
