    yeah, thats my dad in the pics. he was cracking some joke about not posting his pics on the internet because of his witness relocation and protection. hes afraid the festiva mafia is going to find him.

              I thought I noticed some family resemblance. If the Festiva Mafia finds your dad he might have more body work than he could handle.

                    I have a question.... Since you were going to paint the lower half of the car a different color, why did you bother painting it all the way down with the gray?

                    Just curious, b/c I don't know much about painting cars and I found that interesting. I would have thought, "...save the paint and just paint a little bit below the line where the color changes.

                    Thanks for sharing your updates. This is a really nice project and that two-tone paint job looks awesome!

                        in a word.... i did. i think what you are seeing is the black sealer. i don't really have a good picture to explain it. but i painted well below where i knew my lines would be.

                        you can kind see it in this shot


                        see how on each side of the tape the paint is darker than in the middle of the hood. the middle is just the sealer, and near the tape in paint. hope that helps.

                            all thats left is to stick the moldings back on and maybe some pin stripes to divide the colors, and to swap out the door glass with tinted glass





                            we had some runs in the clear that still need to be buffed out (thats the dull sanded areas you see here)

                              no, not at all. i was going for a tribute to nate, but it looks like the fumes had gotten the best of me. (was trying to explain how to take the picture, when my dad figured it out)

                              ROCK ON!
