You are going to need shades to work around that car! Nice! Which gun did you use?

The devilbiss starting line kit that you were looking at.. Typically I just use the Sata that I have but wanted a couple more guns so I could use 1 for primer 1 for color and 1 for clear.. I will probably rebuild my sata to be the color or clear gun before I do the exterior.

Looking great Ben!

Also wanted to talk about the availabilty of the 70s porsche paints. @bbrock had mentioned difficulty finding ppg shopline locally. This goes 1 step further. These older colors have not been converted to non leaded versions. My supplier had to call ppg directly to see if they have a "panel" that is sprayed out to do a spectrum analisyis on to come up with a modern color code.. Took some hassle but ended up with a 65 dollar qt of color versus not available or 150 dollar qt.

Got my noico noise insulation yesterday and starting to lay that out. Ordered the perlon back pad delete.. Plan to install interior soon then wrap it all in plastic. This is just to consolidate my parts.. Not 100% sure what seats I am going to use yet. The goal is to get it on suspension shortly..

Also worked on GT bumpers.. Out for chrome shortly.

Oops and the picture.

Colour is very rich looking. Nice progress Ben. Where did you purchase your
Noico sound reduction from? Thinking of giving it a try.

[mb911]

@Dion the noico was on ebay 50 sf for 60 dollars. I am nearing completion of installing it and there is more then enough to do the whole interior plus inside the doors..

Add in all the six conversion parts that you have designed and fabbed and the sons car - you are a serious machine!!

FYI, what Ben showed looks to be the 50 mil stuff. I'm going to buy the 80 mil Noico on Amazon. 36 sq ft for about the same price: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00URUIKA...L83GP&psc=1

Hey Ben, do you have any pics of your car with the masking still on? I'm trying to wrap my head around tape lines and paper placement for this kind of interior/exterior spray. It occurred to me that I may be thinking too much of my ancient experience spraying a car with an old fashioned high pressure suction feed gun where overspray winds up on the neighbors dog if he isn't covered up.

Never mind. Found good pics on @aggiezig 's thread. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

I was just concerned about all the contours etc so went thinner thinking I could double up in areas.

Good idea. I did a really rough measure and estimated about 28 sqft to cover all the floor space the factory tar covered. That's probably an over estimate but regardless, 2-layers of that stuff over most of the area should make for a quiet tub. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

Just a little assembly . Again trying to make this a roller and not spens so much time on jackstands and not movable. A little PMB and 914rubber love here. Along with freshly painted and powdercoated parts. Special thanks to Mark epstein for the struts and hubs. Gonna install front a arms etc shortly.
