    Finally got it painted

     



    After weeks of body work and prep I finally got to see it painted. I was really happy how it turned out, the hard work paid off, thanks for your guys help along the way. It's Hot Rod Flatz Blood Red, I think it will flatten out a little more as it dries. I know not everyone likes the flatz but here it is. I went with gloss black interior to match the frame.

    That'll depend on how hard you hammered it on. If you went thin coats, let it flash off well between then it will. The faster you pile it on the more shine it will have.

    Very good progress, congrats!

    It's much easier to promise someone a "free" ride on the wagon than to urge them to pull it.

    Luck occurs when preparation and opportunity converge.

    Thanks a lot guys (and Jgirl), that was one big step in the build progress that was starting to burn me out, now I can't wait to get back at it again. Gotta go back to work now though. I'll be happy when it cures and I can shut off the heat in my garage at night, it's been running straight through for about two months.
