1988 Iroc - New Paint Job

Bought the car last May. Have been working out the bugs and getting it to run properly before I painted it.

After almost 3 months, shes painted and finally back on the road. Yesterday was my first drive since I started the paint job.

I still have some things to finish up on it. Stuff like painting the "Camaro" grill, wheel wells, refinish the wheels, get a centercap etc.

Next stage brakes/suspension/steering
Then drivetrain
Last interior

Yes. I didn't do it myself, I had a glass company come and take it out. I paid them 1/2 when they took it out, and half when they installed the new one.
