Im sure you remember this: http://temp.corvetteforum.net/c3/12secvett//pics/1banquet_pics_091.jpg Well, we are almost done. My father has painted the car. And after many long hours of painting and sanding, we are almost there. just have a bit of wetsanding to do the clear. but alot is already dont. you will see in some of the pics that the passenger side ttop is a bit duller then the driver side. That ttop still has not been sanded. Take a look. Dial up beware. :smash: Sorry they are all indoor pics, but it is pouring outside :sad: http://temp.corvetteforum.net/c3/12secvett//r_newpaintjob001.jpg http://temp.corvetteforum.net/c3/12secvett//r_newpaintjob002.jpg http://temp.corvetteforum.net/c3/12secvett//r_newpaintjob003.jpg http://temp.corvetteforum.net/c3/12secvett//r_newpaintjob004.jpg http://temp.corvetteforum.net/c3/12secvett//r_newpaintjob005.jpg http://temp.corvetteforum.net/c3/12secvett//r_newpaintjob006.jpg http://temp.corvetteforum.net/c3/12secvett//r_newpaintjob007.jpg http://temp.corvetteforum.net/c3/12secvett//r_newpaintjob008.jpg http://temp.corvetteforum.net/c3/12secvett//r_newpaintjob009.jpg Not bad for my our first try :thumbs:
