I have to Thank Mario for helping out with the paint supplies.

Greg W. wanted me to paint it Porsche 918 Liquid metal silver. He heard it was cheap.

Flash68 01-23-2015 10:48 AM

Dang that is sharp!

Why did you decide to paint all those pieces vs powdercoat? Just curious.

Cause I didn't want to pull all the arms apart. When powder coating it has to bake at 400 degrees.

Wow Bob! From the fitment, the lines, color choice and finishes, everything about it is spot on. Congrats!

96z28ss 02-20-2015 11:27 AM

Well, its just about finished with the body and paint phase of this damn project. I'm picking it up next week. They are just doing final polishing and detailing it.

The car really changes color depending on light.

Bob it feels good to actually show my reps a finished paint job! They were very happy to see Marks car at SEMA now I can show them yours. Looks like they took care of you real well. You may have gotten the deal of the century there!!:trophy-1302:

If anyone has ever seen Jason Mortenson's work they know he is one of the top body & paint guys out there. He just hasn't gotten the recognition he deserves. He has 2 riddler winners under his belt.
I do have to thank Tim Bruning for introducing us. Tim really pushed me to have Jason paint my car. Tim knew of his work ethic and work quality from when he worked at Steve's (SAR). Jason really is one of the nicest guys you'll meet also. I know that good things will happen out of his shop in the future. Just look at his Mortenson's custom touch facebook page and the cars they are working on.

I plan on taking this to as many shows I can. I also want to do HotRod power tour.

Ron in SoCal 02-21-2015 08:09 AM

Paintwork looks fantastic! :thumbsup:

GregWeld 02-21-2015 08:13 AM

Lovely!



Tell us more about the Comet in the background.... LOL

I didn't want to be the one to let the cat out of the bag but, I guess I will.

The comet is Greg Welds newest addition he plans on racing a 4 door at local autocrosses.

Just went through the whole build thread again, everything about this car is so well done, very tastefully done mods and the paint is incredible! Congratulations!
