I spent a couple months searching for a talented painter before we tackled the final stages of this project.
I was getting discouraged with not finding someone who fit the need until a couple weeks ago this guy stopped by unexpectedly.
The person I hired is someone I've known for years but had no idea he was looking for work. Timing is everything.
His years of experience finishing hot rods and painting motor coaches is a blessing as we get up to speed on another facet of 914 restoration.

The Deep Black Diamont 2 stage paint is turning out nicely on this custom bodywork (Tangerine Signature Flares and 916 Hardtop).
One fruitfly got in the booth and buried himself in the rear decklid as soon as the clear was finished but otherwise its gone almost perfectly.
