Well, I got a sneak peek of the general in the booth today and WOW it came out incredible. A 10 in my opinion. But, I'm away until tomorrow afternoon so all the pics I have will not be up until then. I am very happy though, it's better than I thought!! Mike and larry can comment as they've both seen some pics.  :popcrn:

See that Jeff you created monsters! This thread is like crack and I check it almost everyday in hopes of grand and fantastic updates to soothe the pic monster inside me. I was jonesin' so bad the other day I had to search the forum for another build but it wasn't enough! I need more pics!!!!!!!

You guys are funny...

I just got back from being away, and sorted through about 100 pictures. I have to resize and crop a few, but first I need to unload and get a few things done..

Check out this helmet!! Vintage stuff here worn by the man behind the paint gun!!

TONS of pictures coming up!!!



I will give ya one other spoiler shot...



jb666

Ok guys, it's picture time. One disclaimer here is this car is barely dry in these shots and there's a TON of clear over the flake. It obviously hasn't been wetsanded/buffed yet, so any 'texture(orange peel)' you see will soon be gone and this thing will look like a mirror.  In a few of the shots I tried to capture the appearance of the flake, but until it's out in the sun it won't be something I can capture. It looks absolutely stunning in person.  :drool5:

















The filters in the spray booth















TO BE CONTINUED......

jb666

Here you can see the flake close-up





They did an awesome job bagging this car up for paint. Didn't miss a spot!!











Not sure if you remember the "before" of these , but this area was destroyed:



Nice clean channels.. Unlike before where it looked like the Bondo was just smacked in there..











TO BE CONTINUED.....

jb666

I love the lines back here... These cars IMO are just so perfect...

























And a really cool old Vette they are working on. This thing will be NICE when it's done!!







That concludes today's pictures.. The next set will , more than likely, be of the car with the graphics painted on, but we'll see  :cheers: :cheers:

Life isn't Father Knows Best anymore, it's a kick in the face on a saturday night with a steel toed grip kodiak work boot and a trip to the hospital all bloodied and bashed.....for reconstructive surgery. But, what doesn't kill us, makes us stronger, right?

I can't wait to see it in the sun either, it'll be great!!
