Thanks Wayne. Best of luck with your project, too. :thumbsup:

One thing's for sure, Alchemy doesn't have friendly doors. ;) Can these BOS men make a car or what?

And if this shot of Jon's paint job on Bob's 911S doesn't impress you then nothing will.

Can I lick it? :lol: Looks perfect Bro! :thumbsup:

That's Matt's approval fist/face (I think). Just another day for Trev....:)

Greg poked his head mischieviously thru the door of the paint booth. I'm sure he was wanting a taste. :lol:

Thanks Ron!

Actually, that is my "hmm... this looks like Bad Penny" face. :lol:

Kidding aside, the paint on the two cars will definitely look different when beside each other.

Matt

Actually - that's Matt asking Trev if he knows anything about auto-electrical.... :rofl:

The paint looks sweet. Your moving right along.

Absolutely amazing :wow: :wow: :bow: :cheers:

Thanks Wayne. Trev and I are anxious to get back in the game. The last couple of months have been a remarkable experience watching the guys do the body and paint. We're hoping to participate with the rest of the build come next week. Then it's off to Eric Thornsen for the interior work. :woot:

Thanks Ghost. Yes, those guys are amazing. I can't wait to see the car after it has been color sanded.

Very nice. That is going to look killer out in the sun.

Thanks tones. Here's some shots of Alchemy in the sun. Also, a preview of the Fikse wheels and blacked out tail panel.

Wheels look good Bryan! Paint looks amazing, but what else would you expect out Dick and John?

We installed the sound deadener. Still have a couple of small areas left to cover. Pics aren't too good.

Sweet ! Nice progress.

Looks fantastic Bryan! What mat product did you use?

Thanks Ron. It's good to be participating in the build again. We used B-Quiet.

You got it Johnny. I'll get the information from Jesus tomorrow morning and post it for you.

Finished the DSE dash insert.

We measured placement for the gauges, vent, switches and head unit. The tolerances for the gauge holes were very tight so Dick had to cut the crude holes. I smoothed them with a "dental tool". Everything fits nice and snug. We wrapped the gauges with a strip of masking tape to mimic the effect of paint.

Jesus shot the primer, Trevor and I did the wet sanding and then Jesus painted it.

Trevor and I wired the gauges.

Jon is color sanding the car. As soon as he's done I'll post pics. Clayton Machine pedals are installed as well as the Wilwood master cylinder. More updates soon.

It looks great nice progress.

Thanks Wayne. Really liking how yours is turning out, too.

Jon finished color sanding and buffing Alchemy today. Only my photography skills could slaughter the spectacular job he and Jesus have done painting the car. :mad:

Here's a cellphone shot. When in low light it really shows the "redish" flop of the BMW Valencia orange paint.

Master cylinder, dash harness and Clayton Machine Works pedals installed.

Tomorrow we'll install the dash insert and begin laying the engine harness wiring.

Bryan that color even looks great when its in a shadow! Sweet.

car looks fantastic! :thumbsup:

What he said!!!!

Wow! The black under the hood offsets it so well!

At first i tought it was same as Penny, Its a Bimmer colour? Never seen it...

Very nice.

Lead.

Thanks guys. I got really lucky with that color. Saw it on a bimmer one day when I was on the way to the shop to tell Jon to paint the car silver with black hockey stripes. Had to have it. :)

Killer looking car Bryan.:thumbsup:

Hey Bryan, I saw your Marquez tail lights are installed. They look good, and remind me of mine, except something is different. Oh, I know, yours are cleaner and shinier.

Matt

Thanks.

Imitation is the most sincere form of flattery. ;)

Trev installed those. He's loving working on the car. Got the Marquez side light bezels insalled, too.

That's a beautiful 69 Camaro under the cover. But, I didn't dare take the cover off for pictures. :_paranoid

Great updates. Looking good Bryan.
