Looks great. Just out of curiosity, what did the paint cost? I'm looking to get mine done soon.

Looks great, now you can bring it over drop it off , take mine and start working on it. seriously it lookks good are you taking it to woodward?

 

[Loosenut]

Thanks Guys Kinda makes all the work worth it.


Lhorn the paint cost $3500. That included repair on 2 spots on the body: dime size rust on pass door, and driver side quarter (wheel fell off while tow dollying to painters ). that did not include media blasting.

Pat, I was going on Thursday, but after the blackout that got changed. I have to work Saturday, cant make it.

Your car looks really good . nothing like fresh paint . What kind of wheels are those &what size they look killer.

 

[Loosenut]

yruslow, Thanks. Those wheels were bought at a Buick dealer about 4-5 years ago. They are aftermarket I heard they are made by ARE. they are 16X8.

Thanks

Very SWEET!! I cannot wait until I get there in about a month or so.. Tell me.. How much of a pain in the azz was the TTOP Molding/seals?

 

[Loosenut]

aperrego, thanks. The seals and molding werent too bad, took about 4 hours. I got all new seals and molding from a gm dealer. A buddy of mine works at a dealer, and got me all new screws also, that helped alot.

Car looks great. I love those wheels too. One question: You bought those at a Buick dealer. Did they come with the trishield on the centers? Oh, and one suggestion: Paint the drums. I know, I know, everyone's a critic. Car looks great, but the drums can detract from it.

Brian, thanks. The wheels came with the tri-shield center. I saw a car at the nationals this year with the same wheels but a super six in the center caps. I was planning on painting the drums, but ran out of time, it will be done b-4 next season.
