I agree, leave this thread alone- I want to see the paint work. Vinyl wraps.....that's a different thread.

Well, you're getting a lot more accomplished than I am. I'm so far from paint that I don't even see the entrance to the tunnel, let alone any light (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)

Anyone have a few pics of this area either finished or almost finished? Referring to the front side of the sail panel. The painter was wondering how all the vinyl and trim goes back on. Don't have my photos handy

It needs to be painted body color all the way around, it shows in spots around the trim.

the glasurit for my 72 Adriatic blue car was $900.00 for 3/4 of a gallon, no reducer or activator, just the paint



My car is going in for paint next week and I'm also having it painted in Adriatic blue WOW that is expensive.

The body looks beautiful. If they can powder coat them in satin/semi black, why not?

Anyone know who T H O M A S used for powder coating? He did all my under carriage parts and they came out killer. That's probably the way to go. Easier to finish the rear deck lid grill too.

Finally brought her home today. Man the paint is slick on this one...I'm very very stoked! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer.gif)

Need to find a good local powder coater for the engine grill and rockers.

Well that sounds like a party...
It's just a big adult puzzle. We'll see how it goes.
I grew up in SB. Now in the middle of LBC. See you around.
