I have a rendering in my head....also i have only finished the doghouse and doors, the front of the car has not been touched with sandpaper or buff. Oh yeah, we got our engine, i will post on monday. LS2 2005 GTO, auto tranny....er...paddle shift in the plans..... Also axle is moser 35 spline with detroit locker and 389? gears, I am a body guy not a mechanic.
Scuff with red scotch brite pad. Then I shot with ppg Dp90 black epoxy primer and then look over after dried for dust nibs and such. If it sat for more than 24 hours I scuffed with grey scotch brite and then tacked off. I used SEM trim black. You can get this in spray cans but it will not look as good. I got it in a quart from my paint supply store and mixed it with centari reducer. Any good quality laquer thinner will also work or you can hunt down the SEM reducer recommended on the can. I also wanted to say that soon the plug will be finished for the front and we will be making the mold. I say we cause I have help in the final stages of this from a very experienced fiber glass mold maker, Terry Delong. Google him and you will see his work all over. He has built multiple sema vehicles and even made the body kit that is on Sammy Hagars red rocket mustang. He helped me get ready for the show this weekend, was there until 3 am friday morning, awesome guy. So I know this front end will turn out just right.
