project almost done.. red candy has begun

[93project]

I've been building my car for the past 4 years and right now. Its in the paint booth being done in '11 red candy. I'll post pics as she's completed for the one or two of u that asked for pics of the color....

Is that U6 with a tinted clear?

 

[93project]

Not tinted. It is u6. Hadn't been sanded or anything yet. Plus the metallic isn't really visible under shop lighting....

Very cool. It has to feel rewarding to be that far along with it.

 

[93project]

It is.. I almost gave up on her... At one point, it was a shell... No interior, no engine/trans, no front suspension.... It was hard to keep at it.....
Here's her heart and my little helper...

I'll get more pics monday

Looks great...i'm sure pics won't do that color justice.

your going to love that color... we did a roller that my friend had in his shop red candy and through it together the color was sick !

 

[93project]

I'm already loving the look! Here's some pics the shop just sent me...

A few more days and she'll be beautiful again!

Very exciting!

That's a nice red man, can't wait to see it finished.

Just needs the clear and tomorrow she's getting wet sanded, buffed, and reassembled!

 

[StreetsideStig]

So awesome! It's cool your daughter is helping you, too!

 

[93project]

Believe it or not, my little girl helped me disassemble the interior, install the Holley fuel pump under the car(she held the 9/16 wrench in the hatch area while I tightened underneath), and helped with reassembly! Anyway, here's the fox with clear... Tomorrow is eetsanding, and body reassembling and we're done!

 

[95BlueStallion]

Hell yes! Im excited for you man!

 

[Bryan83taco]

Very nice! I like that red

 

[93project]

Hell yes! Im excited for you man!

Thanks man! That's why I dig this site... Fellow foxers that share a love for these old cars!

 

[Mintsick]

That looks great! It's nice to see all that hard work put in be rewarded with a sweet looking paint job like that!
