Awesome! Beautiful car man. Some of those Spohn billet strut mounts would compliment that engine bay nicely.

What steps do you have to take to get her back in the bubble
Like,do you you bust out the pressure waher ,clean under the car,the insides of all the wheels,wipe down the engine bay before you put her back in the bubble

Wow... that garage pic cracks me up. No dirt anywhere. Nothig on the walls. Wheels covered. Car on a plate. Car covered. And all of it in a "bubble".
I bet if you have kids they have strict instructions on proper behavior around the 'Maro.

Well mom is building a new house for us to move to while this one sells...once this ones sells she is going to build one in NC for her. The new one here I will rent to own from her! Being single means no loan for me!
I finally broke down and told her about all the car projects I have...the 2 car garage turned into 4 with a 2 car carport! The SQ ft on the garage space is about what the house is!

the number is 9700 if tit is the strait black, and probably the dbc concept, and for cleat im guessing concept 2000 clear from ppg, primer mostlikely is k 36 filler\sandable primer for that smooth look.
thats whats on my iroc, and it looks like a freekin mirror
. dont have any picks right now because i just bought a new vaio laptop. you might be able to find some after pics in one of the roll cage threads in the suspention boards.
nice car buy the way. just remember to use a buildable wax to keep it from hazing from swirl marks.
thanks

if the painter was using say a sata jet 2000 digital like i have you can lay the clear on in really thin coats, kinda pointless, because you can accomplish the same affect with 2 or 3 heavy coats, like i did on mine, just got to be carfull not to run the clear.
but its not likely he put 6 coats, mabee equal to 6 coats , the idea is the less coats the less of a chance for dirt, fish eyes and everything else that likes wet paint.
thanks

Only you Jason, only you. But being you pull first place and best of show where ever you go, it's not a bad idea. If you intend to use it at the shows to prep the car, be careful of the guys walking past that they don't deflate it while you're in it. That's about the only way to stop you at a show. Good luck this year in the shows.
