Cool Donald! Can't wait to see it with some real color . Is it going to be the lilac?

I sent him a message and told him to paint the dang thing blue. I like the lilac but after a couple of hours on the visualizer, I honestly like the blue better. The lilac is sharp and different, but the blue really looks better. Not to mention, it will be finished sooner, give him his shop space back and save me money if I stick with the blue. I will be pleased no matter what color it is, but I think the marathon metallic is one of the prettiest colors out there.

I agree....Marathon Blue is my favorite

You will never get tired of blue.

final prime. Trunk gets finished and painted next, then we'll wet sand the body and shoot it.

Scotty B .... is the man!!!!!

Oh no.

First scotty gets left with a whole car's worth of Gold paint and now he will have left over Lilac too?

Oh well, Dr. Evil can handle a two tone paint job on his 914.

Terrific work- I just don't want to see any lilac paint on my car! Man, I can not wait until it is my Six in the paint booth getting color squirted.

There is something magical about a 914 at this stage. Reduced to it's basics, yet bursting with potential. Kind of like the first buds of Spring....anticipation in the air.

Here's a tease of Marathon Blue just to whet the appetite. You're going to love the color, even though the lilac would have been really cool. Re: your calling it the Ice Queen, I wanted to get plates that said ICE 914 but the DMV wouldn't allow it. The color is a lot like glacier ice.

I can hardly wait to see you actually drive a 914...


Although your Prius looks cool...

Just so you guys have something to look forward to, this young lady, a personal friend of mine, will be doing a photo shoot with my car once it is finished( unless of course it takes me 20 years to get it done, she most likely will be old and fat then) and completed for driving.

Until then, she has given me permission to post her in the Hot Legs thread.

NIIIIIICE!!!! ............. will she be wearing a Lilac colored outfit? .............

Brush, roller or did donald pay extra for the wagner power painter?

12 gauge ......




Donald, you should just send her up here to do a photoshoot in the booth

Very excited for you Shoe...Love your color choice.

Maybe I could persuade her to come up to your place for a shoot while you paint. You could get good advertisement out of it. She is about your age Scooter, and she is single and has a really good nursing career. You might be just what she needs.

Here ya go Scotty, a couple of pics of her with cars.

Either batshit crazy, has a cabinet full of crazy meds, a fleet of kids or has weiner

All women are bat shit crazy, she is a drug rehab nurse, yes, she has 2 very sweet daughters and no, there is no weiner there.

You've checked on the alleged weiner?

She's getting some color

So?

Nice work Scotty, she is coming together. Going to be a beautiful car.

If she's a drug rehab nurse more than likely, there's 'history.' they don't go into that by accident...

Hoping to finish up painting this week. I just realized yesterday I'm running out of time. 2 weeks left till the clinic

Really excited to see the finished product.

Nice!

Leaving for Virginia, will drive all night. Time to go pick up the finished product and bring her home!

Have a safe trip, Don

Thanks Steven, maybe we can meet up Saturday in my way back. Bring mblizzard too.

Where are the finished pictures?

Cool color, another nice looking car!

Just in time to drive it to Hershey.

That color is gorgeous!!!

Scooty

Very nice looking car and color. Looking forward to more pictures of the completed paint job. Say hello to Scotty and my car for me while you are there please

Sure thing.
Text me your ETA thru K-town.

Man that scotty can shoot some paint can't he? I heard somewhere that the original paint used for Marathon Blue and silver had fading/quality issues, so I always thought Marathon Blue was pretty light based on the few cars I saw. Pretty much seemed silver to me. This looks so much brighter and bluer. Have to say I voted purple, but good call shoe. That's the right color.

Take care getting it home!

I saw the painted car at dr evils trans clinic. Almost made me change my mind about painting my car red. Beautiful.

Elsa is the Ice Queen on the hit movie Frozen. Might be a new name - Betsy got kinda old.
I vote for Elsa!

This will be a super cool car, Shoe.

Before seeing this pic, I was convinced I wouldn't be returning my car to it's original Marathon Blue Metallic. But holy smokes that looks great! How come they never look this good when I google Marathon Blue Metalic 914's.

LOOKS GREAT!!!

That was in a paint booth. Wait until it hits the sun. Scotty is getting pretty good with those vinyl wraps

Taint perfect, but it's Donalds after all

Looks incredible. Now let's hope it don't get all bugged up during assembly.....

Nice job, Scotty.
Here's the Ice Queen in Knoxville visiting my Creamsicle.
