Default Camaro getting painted.

I'm excited.

The Camaro is going to the bodyshop around December. It's getting a coat of silver paint, a racing stripe and this new hood from Anvil.

It's gunna look killer.

Gotta say that I was totally impressed with the hood and service from Anvil.

Nice! That hood is going to look killer. Are you planning on painting the hood, maybe leaving some of it exposed as stripes?

Yeah, I'm hoping that once we clear the hood we don't get a reaction between the clear on the hood and the clear we spray on the car.

I've seen clear do weird thing when you mix different types.

Wow, that hood looks AWESOME!!

I think exposed stripes of some sort would look great!

I wish they made one for my Road Runner, lol

Thanks,

I know that there are many 1978 to 81 second gen Camaros out there so I'm always trying to keep it looking original.

At least till I get my 70'

Wasn't sure at first about the bulge in the hood but it totally grew on me, can't wait to see it with paint!

Well here it begins: PROJECT QUIKSILVER

Yeah I know there's another car out there with the same name, I'll just be the Canuck version

We got the car into the shop and started dismantling it, and already found a surprise. The previous owner had removed the rear fin (center and sides) to prime the car then reattached them leaving bare primer beneath the fin. We have blisters to repair on the lower fenders, filling the licence plate anchor holes and replacing the rear lower bumper valance.

Going to repaint the car with 02 Firehawk bright silver metallic.
