Looking good. What color, Plum Crazy? I assume they will spray a primer sealer to get it all one color before the color coat... believe it or not, but the color of the primer will effect the appearance of the top coat, and spots of black primer/EDP may show though...
 
Yes Adam, your correct, today the sealer and block will happen then hopefully FC7 tomorrow... I am getting pumped but my anal self is causing the shop heartburn. I hope they take my direction serious...
 
Looking good. My Cuda just got lots of rot cut out and about to start serious sheet metal work. Need to get my thread started. I too am going FC7 so can’t wait to see yours. Good tip on primer sealer.
 
A Little more color, coming along and can't wait until I start putting it all back together. Final bit of paint by Friday this week, then color sand and buff, then put together. soon I'm back on the road. Also got my new tags today...pretty Kool

Latest update. Had an issue with the body shop but thank god for someone pressing them. This week will have color sand and buff then next week re assembly starts. will send pictures as soon as I can. Getting geeked about getting her back after 14 months
 
Hello All, been a long time coming and a very stressful process but I finally brought my car home from the shop without it being finished she 16 months later. I was in BODY SHOP JAIL. but I'm out and car is home. It is painted but just have to start the final assembly. I wish there was someone in the Los Angeles area that I could pay to assist in my garage. If you know someone with E-Body experience please PM me Here she is in full paint
