And the underside:

Masked and ready for paint:





In the booth:



We used a thinned rock gaurd on the underside which is why there is some texture there. In person it is very subtle but in pictures it seems to catch the light and look more obvious than it is.



And in the shop:

It reallt changes color depending on the light.

Wow! you're doing a real nice job with that build up! I have a few questions for you though as I am new to Camaro's. I like how you filled in on the front fenders the small peice that would mate to the bumper. Also, isn't that a 69 front lower valence? Was there any other mods to get it to fit? Does it just bolt right in? Anyways great project, I look forward to seing more pics as you progress.

Thanks. The lower valence is modified '67 piece that we fabricated to accept '69 running lights. I know it is posted elsewhere but to give you an idea on what it required:

Wow absolutely top caliber build going on here. The progress pics are simply awesome. Your custom red looks stunning to say the least.
