[verified hick]

all hands on deck

Who’s doing the paint? I’ve got quite a bit of paint to do, always been happy with classic on Washington road but they’re so busy it’s impossible to get in.

 

[verified hick]

a buddy i work with, he sprayed the engine bay you can see in the pictures. hopefully it turns out amazing.

 

[Tina94]

Yeah the bay looks slick

gladly i was able to snag a wing before we shot the paint. redrilled the holes as the previous owner covered them up wet sanded it were good to go!
even sanded its still beautiful
not the biggest fan or the rims either but there growing on me, im not a chrome person tho as you can see all my stuff's usually black. think it would look better if the chrome rim was black or purple but keep the bronze? thoughts?

 

[verified hick]

sneak peak sorry to keep you waiting

 

[verified hick]

the prettiest of colors
still have to wet sand and buff,
then she gets put back together

 

[verified hick]

working on buttoning up the motor and the engine bay so we can drop this in

[verified hick]

Asking me is asking the wrong guy - I’d say silver OZ Racing Superliggera (but not with these tires )

 

[verified hick]

stainless steel brake lines
turbo for start up and making sure nothing breaks before the dyno
had to fix the rear reverse lights they were caked in gunk

 

[verified hick]

another little sneak peak
paints all finished just need to let it cure.
front subframe bushings should be here soon, then motor goes back in!

 

[verified hick]

and thats a wrap on paint

 

[Justin DuBois]

Black?
