Looking great! I'm glad to see the project still moving along. Here's hoping it continues smoothly for you.

Glad to hear this one is still moving forward!
|
Here are some small updates. More to come soon.
The bumpers are flushed and the bolt holes are shaved. http://i43.photobucket.com/albums/e3...seovdv9sr.jpeg All of the gaps on the sheetmetal are the same width. CFrom the hood, trunk, doors, and fenders have been welded to make them all identical. http://i43.photobucket.com/albums/e3...sfxooovwy.jpeg The car is still ugly in the green primer but it's all straight! It's been pushed and pulled on enough and now it's time for sanding and priming. |
Beautiful job! I like that green primer lol I like the shot of it from the front with the fenders on it.:thumbsup:

The bodywork took much longer than expected. We hit a few bumps but now it's back on track.
This is the front bumper tucked. The front was 10 times more work than the rear! But well worth the effort. http://i43.photobucket.com/albums/e3...psjbxixxjz.jpg Here a few of the body. This is about as straight as it's going to get. Its almost ready for paint. http://i43.photobucket.com/albums/e3...psgzwu2gkm.jpg http://i43.photobucket.com/albums/e3...ps2nnd3hny.jpg http://i43.photobucket.com/albums/e3...psh52xnv80.jpg The car is on the rotisserie right now getting everything seam-sealed, then the bottom and inside will be painted followed by the exterior. |
Since the car almost has color on it, I will show the rendering. Kris Horton (Cars by Kris) did an awesome job with this. He turned my ideas into reality with his creative artwork. I highly recommend him!

Nice! I love the rendering.

Here is just a little teaser of the paint. The color turned out perfect. It looks different inside and outside according to the lighting. This was right after the clear was sprayed.

Congrats!
