I bet it flys back together now. It's just a long drawn out grind to get it into paint. Everything after is fun, every piece you hang on it will make it look so much better. BTW that paint really looks shiny and straight.

Thanks Sheldon, going to work on the dash now. It's from a 70 Charger R/T... giving it a complete resto. The paint is sweet but is only a rough coat for now to see how everything looked... nice and straight.

Man that looks sweeeeet! Call me CRAZY but I can smell the PLUM from here.

I agree, judging by the lines in the reflection on the quarters, it looks like all that blocking has paid off.

When the dust settles we'll have a Plum Crazy 70 Super Bee clone/tribute something. White vinyl roof with matching white bench seat interior. White reverse "C" stripe also. Two sets of wheels, one body color w/blackwalls & dog dish hubcaps and the second factory 15" rallyes with white letter tires.........

the car is looking absolutely fantastic, you're just about at the patting yourself on the back stage, well done my good man.

Hmmmm.... tempting. Gotta get the bank account back in shape first, though. Have you looked at the car in person? Is it rusty at all?

Looks great!!!!! I just painted my charger a couple of weeks ago, too, so I know just how thrilled you are! Just wondering what kind of paint did you use?

This paint is actually just a single stage Nason urethane. I put 1 wet coat on just to get some paint on the roof and around the windows before the vinyl roof goes on, so i figured a coat on the quarters would give me an idea of how straight everything would be so i sprayed them as well.

The final paint will be dupont's chromabase base/clear line. I bought more then enough of it before they switched over to the waterborne line here locally.

As this was just a 'preliminary coat' if you will, to coat the roof before vinyl, and to check the quarters as i still doubt my work sometimes lol. There was no need to paint anything but. Under the hood and the front of the jambs will be painted only once when the car gets its final paint as there are no worries about those areas. Hope that makes some kind of sense

Nothing wrong with that, just another step to perfection. You're not the only one I've seen do that, there was a Charger (I think on DC.com), After completing his bodywork he painted his car with SS urethane black (because black shows everything). He was satisfied with it so he scuffed it an re-shot it the color he had pick...(I think it was EV2).
