After 2 yrs I finally have the body in paint. Frame and undercarriage are finished do I masked off the bottom. Color is Destroyer grey and it's in single stage urathane.

Has to be a great feeling .... I've been waiting 20 years ... hopefully this summer I will at least have the "primer feeling" :)

Amazing looking single stage paint job !

Yeah I'm happy, it came out Lazer straight. I knew it should but I still worry a bit about it until I see it in gloss.

Unwrapped. Few pieces of dust in it to nib out but no orange peel at all.

Really nice, congrats on being able to do that.

Thanks! It's a big step in the right direction.

Awesome. I like the color. Going to look very sharp.

Funny, I saw three new or nearly new vehicles yesterday in that color. A Tacoma, a Challenger and a luxury import of some type. BMW or Audi l think.

I like Welds. They definitely have been putting out some cool wheels lately.

Is this a street strip deal? If so hopefully I'll see it at NED!

Yes, currently waiting for my block and rotating assembly to be balanced. It's a 461 with kauffman high ports. Definitely planning on a few trips to NED.

High Ports huh, check out my thread on High Ports for the 69 GTO if you have the 4" water pump.

I took screen shots of what you guys did to get them working. Not sure what waterpump I have I haven't even gotten close to that point, I still need to blueprint the lower end and order all my bearings ect.
