WOOHOO!!, Shouldn't be long now once I decide a color. Of course the way I work on things it could be another 18 before paint. But were hopin for a couple of weeks. I'll keep you posted.

 

I noticed you are using newspaper for the mask. Ever used newspaper before? It bleeds the paint BIG TIME! You are going to have fun (not) cleaning the bleed through paint off, at the edges.

 

its looking really good! what are you leaning towards color wise as of now?

 

about time!!!

 

you have been taking way too long on this project. its about time. chop chop!

 

lookin good... and you can use newspaper and just put another layer on after each coat or just overlap the edges thats close to the paint. that is gonna look mean man keep it up!

 

They sell big rolls of plastic at walmart in the house paint section, if you run out of newspaper.

 

Well, I've painted about 30 cars & trucks and have never had a problem using paper. Sure plastic would have been better but paper was handy.
Whats another 20 minutes to clean the windshield after this long!

As far as color, I'm torn between 2 different blues, or silver, and possibly the original red, or.........

 

well....hurry up and get it out for this season, i want to see it finally in action.

 

Yeah, so do I ! It's been long enough. I'll be picking up that chin spoiler from Jay tomorrow a.m. Thanks for contacting him for me.

 

no problem. He's been pretty busy after his wedding thing.

 

Put the final coats of primer on yesterday. Even got ambitious and prepped the underside of the hood! I'll jamb it this week and paint in the next 2 weeks. Blue or Red?

 

Blue.

 

Red.

 

Hey Stevo, Are those ROH Snypers on your car? If so, we're gonna be almost twins.

 

can't go wrong with blue

 

Yup

Why now are you thinking white with red stripes? Oh boy its gonna be another few weeks of deciding now with 3 colors in mind. Well 3 and a 1/2 colors i should say.

 

LOL, No, I meant just the wheels. I've got an identical set. It'll still be red or blue. I'm actually using your's and some other pics in photoshop to come up with different color combos.
With apologies to whoever owns this car, here's my leading candidate.

Im personally a red fan.

 

a nice torch red would look so good. the only other color that looks good on a third gen would be a radical orange. for example the GM sunset orange metallic or Honda Sunset Orange Pearl (found on the Element, its a really nice color) do not go with a bright orange or boring orange

 

my car was used for the chop. it doesnt look too happy

 

Wow, what a surprise. Another thread hijacked by yet another project.
I love the work you've done to your car Sheldon and can't wait to see the clear on it but it would look a whole lot better in it's own thread!
Now people that just glance through threads are gonna think I went with red! PLEASE REMOVE THE PICS!!

LOL, You shoulda heard the screaming on this end! What's the color of your car anyway?

Sorry. Pictures are gone.
