Man that looks nice! I cant wait to get my Goats and Birds done, all in due time I guess. I painted one of mine last month, it came out nice, but I did it inside my shop. Still got 7 bugs in the clear. pesky little buggers can get in anywhere. It wasnt one of my Pontiacs, it was the first car I ever bought, a 67 Cougar. Cost me about the same for supplies and paint, but I have a bunch of vehicles to do.
To the guys on the fence about it, JUST DO IT! You cant screw it up that bad! Well maybe you can but give it a shot on a beater first.
The old Cougar was really rough, but relatively rust free compared to some of my other rides. So the body work took me quite a while, had to remove the vinyl top, fill the holes for it, section and replace some nasty dents on the body lines, and try to get it smooth with huge amounts of parking lot rash. The pics make it look good in my case, got one run, the bugs, and some orange peel on the roof. I am short so I couldnt reach the middle very well.
Your work is impressive, especially since it was outside and so fast. I would love to have your car.
Well here is a pic of my Cougar, soon the Goats and Birds will get their turn in the shop, and in bare metal.
Also its a 98 Pontiac flame red on it, and the 351C is painted Pontiac blue! Cant have it with out my favorite engine paint..
