    Finally got some color on my little car after a month of body work and block sanding.

    Still lots of work to do..Needs a wet sand and buff, but looks pretty good.

    There are some goofy reflections in these pics..wife, mailbox, etc that make the car look wierd, but it's actually very straight.

    Gotta finish teh bumpers, trim, new windshield, yada, yada and get her to teh HAMB Drags.

    I love that shade of black....BLACK!!!!!!!!!!!!! To really see the great work in a car is to paint it black. Ex: Cole Fosters-Hammit's '36. What more need I say? KNUX!

    NICE. How many car lengths do I get this year? Oh, and since you have so little left to do you should sand and polish out those moon disks.

    Only those who have done body and paint work themselves can truly appreciate the effort that it took you to get that car straight enough for black. Well Done. Be proud.
     
  27. Damned shame ay can't afford bumpers.:D

    Looks good my friend. Ya know there are only two colors for a hot rod, black or ugly. looks like you chose the better of the two.
