Something I'm struggling with on my own project right now, encouraging to see even the pros chase this issue.

Jeff-

I just reread this entire thread again. Wow. I forgot how great this build is. The painted engine looks fantastic. The intake and VCs look epic !!!

2nd round of poly.

For those of us gauging time lines for this kind of quality how long has it been in the paintshop so far?

Right at a year.

Which helps your wallet cool down a little between rounds....:lol:

The first time I seen the orange, I thought it was the base coat LOL

Yes it does. It’s nice to have a breather between bills for sure.

Brian sprays it on slick enough it’s easy to mistake at 1st.

Another angle.

Looks great.

Always sanding.

I'm late to the party.

Any specifics on the offset for the front wheels? I also have a DSE front subframe for my 76 T/A.

Cars in final prime.

Can't wait to be at that point. Congrats!

The Camaro is finally going to get color. It’s been a long time coming but the final sand before going in to the booth is underway.

Wow SWEET! Congratulations

Wow does that looking fantastic !!!!

x2 It looks great even before buffing. Congrats on getting the paint almost finished.

I appreciate it guys. I was starting to loose interest but seeing it painted pulled me right back in.

Closer, but still so far.

Camaro coming along nicely. Will be back at Vastines next week for the front clip assembly then off to Utah for Cato’s Custom Upholstery to finish it up. Yes that’s the 3rd set of wheels on the car. Last set had a brake clearance issue but Forgeline made it right. These are by far the best looking set. Attachment 81181
