We've been working on a '74 2.0 that we picked up a year ago in VA. Solid for the most part, floors are nice. Over the past 2 months we have been doing some work on it.
The goal is just a nice driver. It will be the original Phoneix Red (which is more orange than red). It will be powered by a 2.0 FI, if I get can the D-Jet figured out. I'll update this thread weekly or more often, whenever something notable gets done. Heres what we started with |

Ok guys, im getting ready to paint it finally! Color will be L32K Phoenix Red. Does anything need to be sprayed over the primer? The primer I used was Dupont 2K urethane primer in beige Can anyone recommend a certain paint brand, type, etc to use? I want to do a two-stage (base-clear) so I will also need a recommendation on a clear coat, thanks!

It takes a lot of the guess work out of a project like this. With that said I've always used PPG products to avoid incompatibilities between brands and types.. If you start with a true "paint system" you'll have a better finished product. HTH, Ben |
