Ralph ---- Would you PLEASE BUY A ROTISSERIE this time!! LOL -- Man!! I can't believe you rolled around on a creeper and painted that car like that -- you are my new hero!

Had to comment - so I am "subscribed" to this thread...

Nice work on your previous cars... and will be fun to see this new project go together.

Yeah it was fun! I do want a rotisseri really bad but for the cost and to use it 1-time well it outweighs the benefits. Does anyone rent one?....All i know is that keeping the gun at a certain angle as to not run dry or hit the car somehow really takes its toll.Wish they made a gun were you dont run dry untill your done because getting down and standing up really let me know im getting old .......next is putting in the front frame so i can line everything up and just touch up the little things so i can paint the car. So the real fun is coming....i will post more as i go. Remember im a normal guy just like many of you. Im building this car on a little budget of 150.00 every 2 weeks so i do what i can. Thanks for the compliments!

Thanks! But there is not too much to watch at this point. Pics soon. In the mean time watching yours is giving me motivation to squeeze out some garage time.

I have a small update on my project. I bougth some lizard skin from eastwood and shot it this weekend. I migth say im pretty impressed with the results. 1-gallon was enough for the interior and doors. I also painted the underneath this past weekend. I picked Hugger Orange for my project. let me know what you guys think. comments are welcomed
