well, try primer...if you change you mind at least its already setup for paint

[bdyman]

i know once its done iam not goin to sell it for sure then
finished both 1/4`s tonight sprayed etch prime tonight, and a bit of trim black just to see what it will look like
deck lid is next to finish in the next 2 days, when iam done i wil post pics

[-Alero-]

ooooo la la

[bdyman]

finished last night, what you see is etch prime, i used it to save my self some time, both 1/4`s are done!!!, i can see the deck lid allot better now with etch prime on it, i will fill imperfections, make the lines nice and sharp, and the final coat of primer is goin to be sprayed this week
so far so good everything is goin accorsing to plan, new tires, richie is helping me with the wiring,
my striper is coming, new exhaust, wheel alignment, new plates, clean her up, so byh the end of october i will be driving again
enjoy the pics

[-Alero-]

nice work, you wanna paint my car next? :P

[bdyman]

sure how much money you got??

[cherrington17]

looking good man. very stylin

[kwhauck]

very nice........thoroughly impressed

[bdyman]

thanks guys, i know my camera sucks, when its done my brother is going to take some his res shots, he does photography work as a side job, and when its totaly done i will make a new thread and pics

[Vinalero]

seriously, I don't get why you just dont paint it while it isn't all together yet. Wouldn'T it raise the resale value? I mean, the buyer would have to take all the windows out againt and lights and everything to paint.

I say you paint it Flat black and call it Stealth bomber

BTW, that work on the rear end is pure sex bud. Good job.

[undecided02]

What are your color ideas for the car anyway?

[bdyman]

its a matter of money right now, were slow at work, and i have about 500 dollars in material, that i need to pay off, yes i get material cheap,
but it would take 500-1,000 to get the car painted, and right now i cant afford to paint the car
iam a single parent and have other bills to pay it will stay primer and striped until i can afford to paint the car
and when i paint the car, i wil make my own hood first, i will do silver and either a blue from honda or a blue from gm, i could do ppg`s custom colors but again very expensive, and i will have a graphic to break up the 2-tone, i made a green that would look awesome with the color combo
plus winter is coming and iam goin to store the car for the winter,

dont think becasue its in primer the car was hacked or slammed out just to finish it, not at all, ive been building cars way to long and know what iam doing and i know i didnt hack my own car lol
iam a very dertmined person and when i commit to something i get it done no effin around with me, i have been workin until midnight to get the car done, contacting people to help me get it done,<my mechanic, my striper, my exhaust guy, my matco guy used to be a mechanic so hes been scanning my car so i can fix it, and some people on here have been helping allot too and to everyone a thank you isnt enough i owe them big time
in closing i love the ole skool look, in primer or painted the car will grab attention where i go with it, i built it i own it, and until there is snow on the ground iam goin to enjoy driving my car

[tw0123]

well said... enjoy it, you deserve it after all the hard work that has gone into the build. wow

[bdyman]

thank you , my hands hurt so bad , my elbows down feels like someone is in there ripping the muscule off my bones, that`s what i have to deal with day in and day out,
i need to retire lol i dont know if my body can handle much more abuse, after 15 plus yrs, its taking a toll on me, oh shit iam 37 and have a lonnnggggggg time before i can retire guess iam screwed lol
