Default Paint progress

It has been a long road but we are getting close, the car is in paint. We still have a lot of work to do but it feels great to see something other than primer. I am sure there are a lot of you who know exactly what I am saying.

Oh, yeah. I can only wish for some paint on mine one of these days.

What color is that? Classic Copper?

The color is called Burnt Orange, it's not my favorite color but it is correct for the car. The car is a 71 RS Z28 with black stripes. With The combination of the black stripes and black guts the car should look pretty good when done. As we all know, done is directly related to time and money.

I would like to thank Bruce for his picture posting tutorial he has posted here on this site. By following his easy to understand directions I able to get my pic's posted with no problems. Thanks Bruce!

Mike- I think your Burnt Orange Z is gonna be killer. You can see red, blue, green, Z's fairly often, but B. Orange is striking and unique. Mike's car is all about details. I got to see his remarkable work up close not too long ago and I was impressed! Glad to see you are making progress at the paint shop Mike. (Glad I didn't have to hear about your "progress" on the evening news )

This is what he will be stuffing in the front of the car when it gets bounced from paint jail!!!
