Mike, that engine bay is a jaw dropper for sure!!
Looking forward to seeing that black paint pop out and looking mean! Keep the pics coming.
Take care my man
 
I'm jealous of the size of your garage, Man I wish I had something like that. I have a normal two car garage and half of that is where the GN lives.
Please keep adding more progress pictures, your GN looks great already, even before it's make over.:)
 
Looking forward to seeing it when it's finished, Mike... Enjoyed talking to you on Monday!

Well it's just about ready for primer. Once the primer coats are done the doors and deck lid are coming off so all the jambs can be done real nice.

Looking good Mike, right down to the straight edge metal, keep feeding us with more updated pictures.
 
Car is all in primmer and ready for paint ( will have color on it Monday). Took the doors off yesterday and the windows out as I'm putting all new glass in the car. Went back to his shop last night and he had all the door jambs sanded and ready for paint.Doug (my painter) has the car super straight.

Looks good, brother! I know you want to send those rear fillers to BG, Ky for me. That would be kind of ya! Have a good one! Can't wait to see the color.
 
Hi Mike,
I have been trying to call you and emailing you for some time, so I hope all is okay with you.
You mention this past Monday your car was being painted, if so can you post some pictures?
Thanks
 
Car is painted and here it is just starting the wet sanding.

Very nice, Mike! Sanding will make it look perfect. How many layers did you have them put on and what type of clear coat was used? I hope you bring it down here this year would love to see it in person.
Have a good one!

COMING home tomorrow !!! Here are a few pics. of all the trim done at the shop and it is now stored in Momma's dining room and she is NOT real happy about it. Hee-Hee. This is the car cut and buffed but NOT even polished yet. Got one door and the fenders back on, Doug (my painter ) was installing the drivers door, with my help and polishing the car this afternoon. Sorry but the pic. doesn't do his paint job justice as he made the car STRAIGHT and the paint is AWESOME. I'll post better pics. of it when I get it home. Pic. of the car is below in next pics.
