Color down the color is down on the body....LOl I'm all about taking on projects like this and I must say I hit this paint job out of the park. The owner is very happy. Hardly no dust and just a small mount of wet sanding....Just buff and go!

Jason, your work, would put some of the Big name shops to shame! Plus you charge a good rate for your work. You could work on my car, any day of the week! Congratulations BBBenny

Nice work. I love that color!

Where are you located? How about doing a '75 Firebird someday? Gramma's car could use a new paint job to replace the 25 year old paint on it now.

Jason, what clear are you using ? Does it stay open very long ? Looks like you are a garage painter too.

Mike

Steve not to far from you I'm just outside of Albany NY. The Shelby will be done by the end of this month. We put the trunk lid,air dams, headliner and windshield in today. To be honest with you Steve the list is getting long as time goes on it seems. Currently I have a 70 GTO coming into the shop next. That will put me into the fall. I have been contacted from a couple of members but nothing confirmed after the GTO. I was hoping to get to my own 55 but the way things are going it's going to be a while.

Mike I use PPG deltron base coat and concept 20/20. Dust free in 50 minutes I think it's what the data sheet says. I've used concept 2042 in the past that closes up I think in 30 minutes it's more of a production clear. In my eyes the 2020 is a better clear a lot more depth!
