We had a few rust holes in the floor that were cut out and new metal added.







Floor was sanded and epoxy primed black







Because this has a T-top we are going to add subframe connectors and a roll bar from S&W. The roll bar was sanded and epoxy primed.

The major bodywork is finished



Two coats of SPI epoxy



Block sanded and a little more bodywork



More epoxy







I block sanded again and sprayed white epoxy. I have decided on a color SPI Orange. It is a little darker in person

The fenders have been sprayed white epoxy almost ready for SPI orange paint then I decided to fill in the marker lights



Ready for more primer. The wheels are off of Brian's 94 but the offset is wrong and the front cap won't go over the spindle



I sprayed two coats of SPI epoxy primer on the body and roll bar



I finished the bodywork and sprayed a coat of epoxy to seal it before spraying urethane primer









Two coats of SPI Turbo primer





The body has been block sanded and I sprayed a couple more coats of SPI Turbo urethane primer.
