Partially painting in the garage and under a cover outside.

That is a gold accent stripe on the edge of the racing stripe. This is the exact color combo we used when we first repained this car in 1985.

The main color is 1986 Renault Alliance met red, the black is Cadillac Black Cherry, then the accent is just met gold.

Well, here is the deal. I have a soon to be ONE year old that requires a lot of time (as some of you know). My wife likes the car hobby but can live without this part (grinding, sanding, welding, grease..etc).

She is also committed to the July deadline but I had to broker a deal. I get Mon, Wed, Fri, Sat, & Sun with exception for Church, other events, etc. to plow ahead on the car fairly un-interrupted. Tues and Thurs are dedicated Family night. Just got done watching one of the Baby Einstein videos with my kid and giving him a bath...etc.

The way I see it I have just under 70 days counting weekends and week nights to finish this car into June. It seems like a lot of time, but some of those days are just 1 to 3 hours a night to grind it out, and other things will come up.
