Very nice Jeff! Hey this might be stupid question but I assume that the red on the whole shell exterior right now is a color primer? Looking forward to seeing this come together.

Hey Chris there is no stupid questions,it is actually the basecoat,I am going to block it with 600 and put a couple more coats on when painting car,it really shows how straight the car is or if I missed anything,really happy with the results so far

There you go Jeff nice work! Are you going to paint it apart or together? Just wondering as I always paint solid colors apart and pearls and metalics together? Well I should clarify I paint the front ends off the car, I alway put the doors on if the bolts for the hinges are stock and getting painted. This way you do not crush the paint with a socket.

Great so far, I've been tied up last month or so with a business and family move so not much time for the car. I will post an update hopefully soon.
