Love watching cars get painted it is such a big change. Even though it is such a small step when you consider all the prep, it is pure porn!!
Keep up the good work. |

The hood never shows it's shape well in black (much better in primer)

I needed to get a few "assembled pictures" for the insurance policy and thought I would add them here:

looks like my narrow body twin very close... except for my funny hood and your rocker panels have to be better looking! those 14inch fuchs don't do the wheel wells justice. I have 3 inches of clearance back there. usually run 225/50 on 7's for the track under there. brant |

my rockers have standoffs at the bottom, to follow the line of the body, instead of tucking in like stock

The insurance company didn't like my pictures before enough to agree on the policy value.
they want new pictures taken in daylight. so I dusted it off and put the fancy race wheels onto it for appearance sake and snapped new photo's sorry for using up all of the bandwidth: Attached thumbnail(s) |
