The past several weeks, the car has been undergoing the bulk of the hard work that goes into a good body\/paint job. \u00a0Weeks of guide coats, sanding with increasingly fine grit sandpaper…Lining up body panels to ensure the gaps are even, lines straight. \u00a0Then, take it all apart again for prime and paint…<\/p>\n

What do you guys think of my chosen color?<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Looks pretty tough eh?<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Ok ok, maybe “murdered out” isn’t the way to go on this project.<\/p>\n

The cars and trucks I’ve owned have been black (CRX), red (Integra), red (944), red (S2000), black (RX7), black (F150), black (Ram 3500), red (240sx), \u00a0black (another 240sx), black (Viper), red (Tundra) – heck even the Camaro was red when I bought it. \u00a0So the color choice should come as no surprise…;)<\/p>\n

…<\/p>\n

Right?<\/p>\n

…<\/p>\n

Nahhh…<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Duhhh, it’s a Penske\/Donohue Sunoco clone after all. \u00a0Here are some more:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Always thought the first-gen Camaro’s flow from the C pillar into the quarterpanel was one of the nicest ever executed.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Looks a bit light here because of how bright it is in the booth. \u00a0Should be a bit darker in person.<\/p>\n

Still need to paint the remaining parts, then there’s a few weeks of assembly, wet sanding, and buffing. \u00a0With some luck I’ll have it back by the end of the month.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
