New Progress Pics

It's been awhile since I've posted any progress on my Firebird. The other day the track season ended; so I had some time to finish sanding a few spots and I shot some primer on. It sure does feel good to have it all one color. Here's a few pics..

Thanks for the complements guys.

I still haven't decided what color I'm going to finish it off with, right now its between black and Chyrsler Platinum. I'll need to decide the final color pretty soon.

Looks good.

I love my black car, but it is a real pain to keep clean. The silver would be easier and a bit more unusual......

Or keep it primer!

Nice to see your bird going to the next level. Its hard deciding on a color for a car! I would go with the Silver...just my opinion...but black is bad too.

keep up the great work.
