Firebird has Paint

Well I got sick of seeing a primered car so had to do something about it.
I did all the body work and got it all ready to spray. Luckily I have a friend who manages a body shop and he had his painter spray it for me. Still need to color sand and buff. Heres some picks of it primered and jamed.

Looks like you did a great job on the bodywork, car looks very straight painted. is it black metallic or is it dark grey?

Planned on painting it grey for about 3 yrs now. Finally got off my ass and did it. I think mine may be a litttle darker than yours. Its a stock toyota priuis color.

Looks awesome man... maybe one day ill get mine painted. Quick question: what kind of mods were made to fit the vette wheels? I was looking into those as well, but couldn't find one that would fit the stock wells. Nice to see some more 69 firebirds on the site.:thumbsup:

Fronts are 17x8.5 with a 1.5 spacer and rears are 18x9.5 with torino 9" and no spacers. Fit in stock wells.

nice. I'm not a fan of spacers but I may need to be.

Something about this is just funny to me. A hot rod and a Priuis having something in commom. BTW, love that color!
