Didn’t that 2 step clear change the look of that color @dhutton01?

Really looks good Jim. 7 or 8 coats of clear will do that.

I am just using what Barry told me that most crap in the paint come from YOU and that is so true... I did not buy a paint suit for this one and I can't tell you how many hairs and eyelashes I picked out this this damn thing! Lesson learned. Though the grey ones would not show on this color

Thing is, is that when you started, you didn't have any grey hair.

I just vacuum out the spider webs in the corner of my "paint room" for fear they will decide to fall when I start clearing something...

 

[JimKueneman]

Some assembly required now!

You'll see her coming 10 miles out. Looks great!

Looks awesome Jim. All those coats sprayed, sanded, including rounds of epoxy sure paid off.
Daughter's excited i bet

 

[mhinch]

That's going to look so nice with the trim and accent pieces installed. It's another job well done by the MoPar man!

 

[mhinch]

Polish and reused. Only the Duster I wish reproductions where available as they are so faded

Car is looking great. I'm sure your daughter is very excited and anxious.

 

[JimKueneman]

The fun begins.... Where oh where does the ballast resistor go now I have AC?

After a 3am to 3am run to Bakersfield Ca to pick up a new car with a buddy I still got the suspension parts blasted for the '66 Valiant, epoxy primed-Seymours Castblast/Stainless Steel-Universal Cleared this weekend... Now if UPS finds my lost rear springs this puppy should be a roller next weekend!

 

[JimKueneman]

Too hard to tape these up.... need to pop out the pistons.....
