    well I am painting mine tonight with summit racing flate white. It was pretty cheep and if I dont like it I can always sand it down and redo it for the price. I hope it turns out nice and will share pics when done.

    I just got done with the bodywork on my 50, ended up rolling to TorqueFest today in primer, and in all honesty, the primer looks awesome on it, It really makes the whitewalls stand out and does look clean. I think flat/satin white can be very fun and cl***y!
     
  6. I think it looks real nice.....good move.

    Looks good! Is that a primer sealer or a paint from summit? I'm going to paint my Fleetline flat white.

    I used flat white paint from summit seams to wipe off easy and should hold up lots better than primer

    I know it needs to get out of my shop and on the road, then I can get a better pic with a better background. maybe by the local water falls or the car show Im going to saturday. It feels good to have my car to this point, considering this car started its life as a more door.

    :)Oh! I didn't realize your Merc was formerly a more=door that adds even more sauce to the build. Very cool indeed.:cool:
    A super cool background for car photo is with any type of aircraft in the background . To me it just seems exotic to see a cool car near any type of aircraft. :D

    Good idea will have to look into it. I have a friend who works for a restoration shop for old air planes. I may have to go and talk to him would make a cool photo op.
