Here are the pics I was mentioning. I decided I was going to paint the remainder of the panels that were off of the car before going to work yesterday. It was a beautiful day for painting. Low 80's! When I did the first painting it was well over 100! That was not fun.
Here everything is in primer...
I sealed everything in white...
You'll notice here that the valance is still white! On the second coat I noticed some bodywork that needed to be finished! I can't believe I missed that when I was wiping it all down...
Outside baking some more! I'm all about natural energy!
Hopefully I have the body and doors ready by Monday! Only two weeeks left...Robert

Nice project man! I really get a kick out of home garage projects.
Something I can relate to: "I did it all myself", or course with
a few good friends' help, and maybe some beer....Dave

Took the paper off of her...
I went for a walk to the gate and decided to take a pic from a distance. I don't think she'll be missed driving down the road!

Color compliment #327 checking in. Looks great. When I go back upstairs I will have an orange creamsicle in honor of the occasion... unless all the orange are gone, then you have to settle for lime or maybe root beer but I am good with that too.
In any case, congrats on the milestones.
I thought you weren't going to paint with your good wheels on? Did you swap before rolling out on the driveway?

Thanks Robert. Unfortunately I couldn't put the old wheels on because of the new brakes! But not to worry, nothing was harmed in the making! Originally Posted by Roberts68

Thanks TC. Yes I had decided on the color after a few Hot August Nights. Then I saw Brian's car and was sold. So was the wife! Originally Posted by Tango68SS
