Hi 69,
I like to think mine came apart about as much as one can….BUT…..
YOU started with almost nothing!!!
Serious, serious work!
Well Done!
The pictures make it look like you have this ALL under control which is really remarkable!
Carry On!

Yes, I do all work myself except, motor machine work.
including all body work, and paint.
I use SPI primer and SPI clear,
and buy my basecoat at local automotive paint store.
Had this Not been complete full matching#'s vehicle.
I would Not have replaced every fiberglass part,
just massive amount of work.
my hobby, has become full time work !
Awesome Job 69Vett!!!! My 69 convertible, is also Riverside Gold, and my 1968 convertible is Silverstone Silver(as your Cortez silver 69 coupe in the back ground).
Keep up the good work!

That is great, I love it.
I really would like to try this also.
What is your total cost for the paint job?
And can you tell me a bit about how you did it?
I means, did you make a paint carbine, did you add heat ec ec.
Painted ! Riverside Gold !
