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. Sheldon

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.

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

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). Jason 69 Charger RT 440/Auto. 68 Charger
