paint
 

man thats bright!!!!!!!!:Dhe wont get away with a thing

That's the original color of my '70 sixpack. I didn't pick it, I bought it from a longtime friend. However, once, I was sitting in a "left turn lane" and two girls in a Datsun who were "window shopping" ran right into the back of it. They told the cop "we didn't see it!!!!"

Man that is bright .

Looking good tho , i like how you've done the black on the front there looks tricky , a bitta masking up experiance there .;)

I'm a novice painter & had a bit of fun doing my engine bay , just wondering .

Did you use a top loading gun or a pressure pot ?? I think most of my trouble was useing a normal gun with the pot on the botom .

Can't wait to see the body done .

paint gun
 

i used a gravity feed ,i never use a siphon feed gun any more heck i dont even own one one you use a gravity feed gun you forget about those siphon feed guns.the black out on the front of the radiater support i believe is factory,thats the way my 68 superbee is and alot of other mopars ive seen:D

another e-body ive done in the past
 

:D1973 challenger it was ruff but looked sweet when done.it had a 70 front end on it

the body work begins
 

striping all the old paint off and cutting the rusted quaters off.
can you count how many colors is on this car WOW its been painted a bunch of times!!:D

etching primer stage
 

etching primer will etch the bare metal for adhesion and protect it.
i had full quarters for this car but didnt really need them so i trimed them below the body line:D

2k primer and block sanding time
 

dont we all like the block sanding time,,,time to find any mistakes:D

more block sanding and then some color
 

man that paint pops out at ya doesnt it vitamin c oroange:D
mopar colors are the best!!!

more bright orange!!!
 

man i love that color and trimmed in black really made it pop!!:D
look all that blocking paid off look how straight that body is even where i put the quarters on

engine bay
 

i think the underside of a car and engine bays are the hardest and take the longest:D

whew almost done with this one
 

last touches on front end and then put her back together.the last pics of it was not even buffed yet he picked the car up and liked it the way it was.:D

Sorry for the delay in response mate (insert headbutting brick wall smilie here LOL ) , thanks for the tips . I'll get a gravity feed gun as soon as , i always hated wasting that little bit in the botom anyway .

Some awesome pics there too good stuff :D

Mate i've just moved my AP6 for the second & hopefully LAST time during a respray :mad: . Only have the body to do i will put some pics up when i get back into it but i have to sort the garage out first .:rolleyes:

man you had your hands full with the challenger looks great now just come and do mine

sweet car man

Hey my name is Kyle Livingston. I am a restoration specailest, well really a mopar specailest> looks like youve done quite the job. i am currently in the middle of a rotisserie restoration, 69 Road Runner. it is one of my biggest jobs yet. i have replaced both quarter pannels, trunk and entire rear vallance. it's a huge job but with that crazy 440 getting droped in it will be worth it.

I just finished a 68 Cornette that turned out amazing.

Here is a couple pics for you.
