i did a blue stripe , and i repainted the whole thing. i put some copper and red pearl in the red so its a little different and i had some door dings and stuff i wanted to fix and the red just looked faded so thats why i decided to do the entire car

That is awesome! Mine is original on bottom. Great job! hey we live close, maybe you would do mine for a price of course. How long did it take for paint and prep work?

I did it at evit. Its a tech school in mesa that I went to my last year of highschool (this year) so atm I don't have anywhere to paint a whole car. But the whole thing took me about 2 months working about 2 hrs a day and some help from some of my classmates

Paint can make a car look a million times better. Even if it's a cruddy car. if you have a car with styling and personality like a third gen Camaro, that just helps.

That is great you have experance with paint now. You really did do a amazing job.
I love the color on the bottom. just what i am looking for on my car. I really would like a metalic blue, but that would make the cost a lot more.

ya for sure, thing is i got it so cheap cuz it was making a funny noise when you turned it and the A/C didnt work, greased the ball joints noise went away lol, then the A/C i fixed with just new o rings on the lines and refilling it lol. the interior is like 8 outa 10 too. still needs new tires kinda as the ones on it are really old but ya im very happy with it
