Just wanted to show a couple of pics of some of the projects I'm working on. I'll get more later, so for now enjoy.
54' chevy, it's fenders are the ones hanging on the wall. The owner decided he didn't like the XXBlackcherry color
69' Boss Mustang clone. This beast will have a 521 cid power plant.
and 1 of my lazy a$$ed co-driver during the trip down. lol

Our "Nightmare" car. It was brought to us already painted, just in a thousand pieces and no interior. Nothing was fit to the car prior to painting so you can guess what it was like.........:mad: The front fenders are a poor quality fiberglass pieces as you will see.

71 Challenger and yes, the color under the plastic and interior of the car is the color it'll be...........It's called "Curious Yellow" we're curious as to what drugs the originators of the color were taking back then..................:hick:

Unfortunately that wont be possible :( We are just doing the finish bodywork and paint. The owner of the car will be assembling the car. My bosses did this in trade for a complete (minus engine/trans) 70' base Cuda'

I was a little busy on some the last 32' Coupe parts, the fenders, running boards and the fillers panels between the body and the running boards. All the pieces were in rather ruff shape.

They sure are looking good now. Is that just some extra heat in the corner, or all you need down there?

Hmmmmmm ya.......... we could've of used a touch more heat though. I waited 10 minutes between coats just to make sure that clear didn't slide off. LOL
We actually don't have a regular source for heat.
