    :hail2: Thanks guys! All of these cars have some serious class to them and to be mentioned in the same post as these guys is an honor. Makes me want to fly back to the states and pull the jack stands off of mine and drive it. :( Oh well, at least it is only collecting dust and not any...

    turning the Dmobile into an 86?

    This is what I would do, but this is just me talking here. 1. Buy the 86 project car and make it a DD/street car, eventually. 2. Keep the 88 as an undriven show car for the next couple of years. Putting all that time and money into a car to tear it apart to drive another one just...

    any links, pics, or tips?

    Doing another e-bay project would be pretty simple, knowing what I know now of course. My project lasted me about 11 months and was some of the hardest work I have ever done to any car. The welding, patching, smoothing etc. was the easy part. Fitting your hands in small places, grinding...

    Who makes the best blackest black paint?? Anyone....PPG, DUPONT,Sherwin Williams???

    My painter tested a panel on my car with a tad bit of pearl in the base coat and it looked great inside under the lights, but when you got it out in the sun, the pearl was just too much for my taste. Although I think it is great look, it was not what I was looking for. My brother told me that...

    Who makes the best blackest black paint?? Anyone....PPG, DUPONT,Sherwin Williams???

    The guy who painted my car was one of the best painters I have ever seen and works for my brother, so I got a crazy deal. We did not bake any of the coats, whether it was base coat or clear coat. He would spray one deep coat of clear, let it get just about tacky (probably 45-60 minutes in...

    Who makes the best blackest black paint?? Anyone....PPG, DUPONT,Sherwin Williams???

    There is a difference between a deep look and just shine though. Anytime you add any colors to black, it changes the depth or tint of the color. If you want depth, dump the clear on.

    Who makes the best blackest black paint?? Anyone....PPG, DUPONT,Sherwin Williams???

    Dupont jet-black... 3 base coats, then 6 deep coats of clear. Prep/post paint, wetsand, blocking and buffing are where the real skill comes in. Tim

    I used Dupont jet-black, base coat/clear coat. As long as there at no other color additives in it, your prep and post work is where the paint will get its deep luster. Tim
