Way to go Andrew (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif) . Looking great & even better to see it on the road. Always a good feeling driving your teener. Especially after so much work going into that paint. Keep it up man (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

Great Work Andrew. I hope that you'll be bringing that beautiful car up to Medford!

Nice spoiler. Did you make that?

So spent a total of 17(give or take) hours this weekend between me and my dad cutting and buffing the paint. Its been raining all weekend as well so i couldnt get it in the sun for pictures. I'll upload the pictures tomorrow.

On the runs I started with 600 grit, then 1k then 1500. On the rest of the car it was 1k then 1500. On dirt specs I scraped them flat with a curved razor (details in pictures) then 1k and 1500.

Most of the flaws were removed from the paint this way. The fenders look FANTASTIC. This car really shines now. I cant wait to show you guys some in the sun pictures of this thing. (Dad took some, maybe he'll post some).

I am VERY happy. But there is still some buffing to do. I have to buff the hood 2 more times, as the 1500 scratches are still there in some spots.

Tomorrow i'll paint the headlight covers (as i'll be able to roll the car out of the garage finally since the rain is going to die down..) and get them on the car on Tuesday. Weather stripping also starts to go on tomorrow.

Not a baseball fan in the least bit, LOL

So you will never see me rolling around with a SF baseball cap on.

Maybe one of these though..

Looks awesome! I think your rocker needs to be orange. I'm jealous of your paint job. My car looks like shit! Very soon I will know how many shades of white you can have on one's car... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)

Congrats Andrew, she's looking really nice!!!

I'm with Mike, bring that rocker panel into the fold.

So cool to see some visual beauty bringing this girl out. There's a lot under the skin that most people don't know about. She's really shining.

Looks pretty modern for an old car parade....

At least they didn't turn you away this time.
