I couldnt help it, Paint pics.!

There is still tons of work left, so please dont mention what needs to be done!, yes their will be a rubber molding going around the windshield on the sides, and in these pics. the car isnt even layed out on air! The car is painted Neon honey orange, yes same orange as jeremy varners cav, its prob. the brightest orange you can buy or color in general. Seats are at the upholstry shop! and its hard to see but the inside i airbrushed some ghost skulls. Rims are very dirty 2!

The car itself looks great, but I'll have to agree on not really digging the color. I think it should have been a metallic, not a solid.

Still can't wait to see everything together, though! Nice work.

i think if you put some nice metallic charcoal or something for accents it would look tits. i like the color but its a bit too much of just 1 color

hmm yeah youre right, i dunno

well the hingebolts that go into the car itself need to be whacked down and it'll sit flush, and then adjust it to get gaps better.

i believe the reason his hood doesnt line up right is because he pulled the fenders back to make molding them easier.... and every time he changed something on the car, everyone told him to fix it. every time he said he was going to and not to worry about it. 3 stages later, its the same. give up, he wont fix it.

the car as a whole isn't my taste, but definitely appreciate all the work put into it.

just drives me crazy to see that much work put into a car and have certain things done half-a$$ed and that for me ruins the whole car

needs a headlight swap or something. The front of the car just doesn't look right imo

props on the work though. Color selection reminds me of a big school bus though?

I love the color, and there is some other parts that look awesome, but then the sides looks sooo plan. Truly the J-body lines need the door seems to look right. Then you have a gas cap. Work seems to be AWESOME, but I do not feel it really flows well. still great job and look forward to more pics.
