67 Camaro project "It Don't Fit"

[makoshark]

I've been looking over the bottom of my car to get a game plan to finish it out. My intentions are to paint the bottom of the car with tintable U-Pol Raptor liner mixed with blue paint. I want the wheel wells to be black, but don't really see a good place to make the transition from blue to black. Also, I have the DSE subframe connectors that do show from the bottom of the car slightly. I don't really see a good place to paint those black either.

Anyone have any ideas on the best way to do this? Or should I just paint the whole bottom blue and forget about it?

Just Git-R-Dun ... ifn it's Blue ya want? Paint all blue! Your house is on a roto?

That's what I'm going to do, paint it all blue. However, I will paint the wheel wells black. Looks like I can follow the lines of the inner wheel well as a transition point and the frame rails will be blue.

Is my house on a roto? Not really iPhone just loaded the picture up funny.

I spent the day grinding welds from the mini-tub install and finishing up some welds on the subframe connectors. Now, I just need to go in the trunk and fix some miscuts from the mini-tub install and I'll just about have the bottom ready to paint after finish prepping it.

No picture worthy progress made today.

Since I have gotten the shell mounted to the rotisserie, I've been going over the body searching for areas that still needed attention with the welder. I'm nearly done with all the welding to the shell. I still have a bit left to do, but took a break the other day from welding and started cleaning things up on the car. I sanded the interior of the car down in preparations of get some epoxy on the inside. I'm moving ever closer to spraying the finish on the bottom of the car. I'm shooting for Sunday at the latest at having the bottom finished and the shell in its final primer stage.

In my effort to get the bottom done, I'm trying to finish up all the welds. I fabricated and welded in a trunk mount battery tray and a bracket to mount the remote starter solenoid. They are nothing to get excited about, just simple pieces to get the job done. They will all be hidden by my amps and possible fake wall anyway.

So, I'm trying to determine if I need to weld anything else in regards to the trunk mount battery. I have the battery mount welded in and the remote starter solenoid. Am I missing anything else in that department?

Battery Disconnect Switch? Maybe a sturdy mount for the switch would nice, thanks for the email.
