Plans call for the car to be on display at the PRI show. Does not need to be complete and running, but at least resemble a complete car. I dont see them having time to wire it and do all the plumbing, but putting it together and getting the running gear in will be good enough to display.

Jimmy it looks great, but if you have painted the body the same color as the chassis it would have saved a lot of taping it off.

Your guy is a master painter, that's obvious but has he ever thought of using aluminum foil as a mask instead of tape?

Goes around corners, conforms to curves, etc. and no adhesive to dink with!

Yep, I use the green on detail type areas.

I used the foil just this past weekend to mask the machined area on my spindles so I could paint the rest. 5 seconds per spindle and you're done!

Nothing else needed, IMO. It will look SINISTER as it pulls up to the line!! Men will spring on their feet, raising their arms to the Hemi Gods, and speaking in tongues. Small children will be crying out for their mommies. Ricer-loving teenagers will be running to the fence, to catch a glimpse of the mechanical marvel. Women will be standing in line at the ladies room, as usual.


Dave, I can't be sure, but I believe I read one of your novels in college.

Re: CARBON AND WIRING PICS - 12/07/09 02:01 AM

I had clear painted over mine, I wouldn't recommend it. The clear won't "bite" into the stripe like it does on the base coat. I've had mine chip and there is some bubbles in the clear over the stripe. Looks killer, there's a lot of work in assembly...

Car looks good.
The guy that put my stripes on did the same thing and realized it instantly. They didnt have it labeled in the box and just didn't think about it. He just cut some new stuff he had at his shop and put it on. Sucks, because its now a different color and has shrunk in size . you can still see where it originally was before it shrunk cause there is glue residue there.

Good luck w/ finishing it Where is the show its going to??

That's actually a better idea than airbrushing. Quicker and easier to repair if you happen to hit a low flying bird with the nose of the car at 200 mph.

It was a bear to get it in between all the booths

Jimmy, thanks for sharing this project with us. Words can't describe your car. I never get tired of looking at it. I enjoy looking at all the small details, excellent job. I know it will draw a crowd at the show. Someday hope to see it up close. Galen

I was wondering if it has been on a set of scales yet to get an idea of the weight of it?

Re: CARBON AND WIRING PICS - 12/11/09 12:17 AM

No it has not been scaled yet.

KILLER JOB!!! I'm still amazed at how fast it came together.

Will the airbrush guy have time to do the grille before the show?





Dave it is getting a sticker


YUP...Just take a high quality .jpeg of a Dart grill then output on a wide format printer just like a vehicle wrap... ...but you gotta make sure both the car and camera are dead level.

I`ve been following along from the begining and must say that your car is straight up "BAD A$$$$$". The fit and finish looks incredible and can`t wait to see the video and the et`s.

Jimmy, most people can't do it once. You did it twice and did it in less time than anyone could even comprehend. Congrats on another work of art. Enjoy it.

PS, Thanks for making my 3M stock go up in value.
