thanks that was a great link ...dam i want to see it black and all done sooooooooooo bad i cant wait .well in the moring i think i will build the paint both ....

 

got the paint both up and tacked together ...at the cost of $40.00 dallors ...car is about ready for the frist primer coat.... i still need to remove some glazeing and get all my bondo spots flat... but it really seem closer with the paint room all setup... ...sanding will be done out side of the car port form this point out more light is better and less dust will build up ...well i need to go sand and tape so have a good day all
iam out

 

Looks nice Red, you are really creative, keep us updated as always, can't wait to see your Z done!

 

i cant wait to see it all blacked out.. have you thought of a name for her yet?

 

really i hadn't thought of it ..but i won't be able to call her Red any more will I .
.I dont know yet mabe when she all done i will know ...I really want to put that frist layer of primer on I want to sooooooooo bad ..But if i rush it will look like ****... so iam going to go over the body work two more times and wipe it down with cleaner two times and tack rag it two times dam.....I better go do one of the three right now

 

You're Awsome Red...

Can't wait to see it myself. You're doing a hell of a job.

Rod.

 

Ebony Hey, it suites the new color scheme doesn't it?

 

i got it ALL Primed up stoked SUPER stoked
i can really see it coming together... i am so happy with how much the primer hid ...it looked smooth going on ... there are a few places that i will need to work down ..but i have 48 hours to wait befor i can touch IT ...so i guess its 400 grit from here on out or at least intell primer coat #2 goes on i will take some more pics in the light tomarrow moring ..iam sure that ..i will think it looks like **** as soon as i see it in full light but frist coat of prime is more or less just to see if its flat or not ....
now i got to make it flat

 

Wow man, she is all gray now! But it looks great, good job!

 

Lots of hard work there. Greeeeeeeeeeat Job!

 

cant wait to see her all black

 

More pics sun baked primer goodness .... i thought that it wouldnt look good but really theres about 10 to 12 spots the need flating out ...iam going to cut the rusty hole in the back out and fill it with something .i really want to get to sanding it but i should wait intell tomarrow so this primer really getts a good bond to the old paint ...
It wont be show car but it will look nice as iam flying bye..............

 

WOW, that does look good. All that hard work looks like it's starting to pay off. Keep it up. And whats that block on the back above the bumper support?

 

That is one of my rear bumper blocks ,that i made to remove my rear bumper....the skirt sits on top of the wood blocks .... when the skirts are installed it locks it into place....kind of getto but works very well ...lighter is better ..but i hope she never gets rear ended

 

Yeah man that would be a mess, if that happened! Anyway lookin' good bro', definately worth the hard work! I wish my Z was straight, it will take some work to straighten it out. But oh well, one thing at a time. It's good to see somebody making progress, and something to show for it! Keep it up man!

 

Clever. The ghetto ideas are always the best ones. Anyone can have a bracket made for something like that, but to rig it up with things that have no place being there: now thats ingenius .

 

well i think today will be the last day of prep.... one more good coat of primer and some lite sanding and it will be ready to slap the paint on ...i went to the paint store and they are selling me high gloss black one gallon hardener and sealer for a $150 ...will one gallon be eff or will i need more ....you can see the i will just be painting the sides,top and back of the car ...witch realy isnt alot to cover... i just dont want to run out in the middle of spraying ...sanding the crap layer of primer off went well ..i thought it was going to be harder to sand it off but it only took about 40 mins.... well i got to go to the store i need tape

 

One gallon should be more than enough. I did two light coats on my 280Z I painted a while back. I used just a little more than a half gallon. I should have made the mixture just a little more thick though.

 

HER NAME Black godess ......

 

i am gonna name my car after i paint her black/silver... Black Sunshine

yes it is after the mustang described in White Zombie - Black Sunshine

 

i very carefully put her back together .............

 

Very nice Blue... I mean Red... urgh Black... Whoever you are!!!

Rod.

 

Oh glorious black Z! Now you need some window tint.

 

WOW..amazing.. stunning..awe inspiring VERY VERY NICE.. GOOD JOB!!!

 

it's comeing bleach...mabe for my brithday ...iam very happy with her ...it needs to be hit with the buffer ... but that will have to wait ..enamel paint is hard on the outside but but the inside it takes a long time to dry ....i have to be very careful with her for the frist few weeks ...i wont driver her not for a few days ...i wouldnt want a little rock two **** me off ..... it seems she being a butt and doesnt want to start ...i realy think she is getting a mind of her own ..... its most likely the IM ....anyways lots of time to figger it out i guess ....this was by far the hardest thing i have ever done ...when i do it again to my roomates nova, i think it will go a little smoother thanks for all the help everyone ............its been fun .....................
