So I worked on the interior first. I cleaned and applied #M Seam sealer to all seams. I stripped any rust off and e-coating with a rotary nylon abrasive brush. (Thanks Sonar Chief) I then cleaned, taped off and shot the areas with Eastwood's Epoxy Primer to seal it well.

You are very welcome .... its not a fun way to spend an afternoon, but its gotta get done. Very nicely done .... good that its in epoxy, I have some spraying to do on the underside, Yipee!

Just an FYI ... I used Eastwood Frame coating under the seat frames there cuz when I cut into them for the sub frame connectors there was RUST, so I sprayed away before I weld the top back on.

Camaro is lookin good!

I think that Luxo blue is Lemans Blue.

It was a late C5 color and then a C6 color until 2007.

Here is my lemans blue c6 out in the sun.



Your car is looking great - love the wheels!

Thanks Bonecrrusher.

You are correct. That color debuted as Lemans Blue on the 2004 Z06. Since then, GM has used it under different labels on other vehicles under different names including Blue Topaz and Xenon on the Cadillac, and even Heritage Blue on the 2014 Trucks. They are all WA933L paint code. Loved that color the first time I saw it. With blasting the car and replacing sheet metal, I could paint it any color I wanted. I think I am glad I stuck with blue judging how great the color has turned out. Your car looks great, too! ��
