    Down with Jim & Julie at Royal Kustoms earlier for final mask off before shooting Kandy tonite or tommorrow nite(depending on how long it takes to get the shop sterilized:D).I decided not to add any reverse scallops on the sides(just two on the hood)as I figure the only non flake paint on the whole damn thing being the gold pinstripes around the scallops means it'll be plenty loud enough without overcomplicating the pattern.

    Lets see;
    1-silver & gold metalflake truck-check
    2-flake flatted back-check
    3-scallops masked out-check
    4-nine quarts red kandy-check
    5-Jim and a spraygun-check

    in best Joey Ramone tradition; 1,2,3,4. . . . .

    Well I finally picked her up in time for The Hot Rod Hayride and barring a few finishing touches she's done. I'd like to thank everyone who has contributed to this thread for their encouragement, enthusiasm and suggestions. I'll also be posting a seperate thread to thank all those involved with the transformation. Hope you dig it;
