I'll go out into the shop later tonight and take some pics of the grill and hood of the contrast with the white, I think you will all like. Now the fun begins. Hell YA

Also wanted to say a huge thanks to my buddy Carson who put hours into this with me. We had both the booths all day. Tub in one and everything else in the other. It was a long day but would have been much longer if we only had one booth.

Tell your buddy Carson I said he's a hell of a painter. Centari is really good/durable SS paint, but it is known to run if you try and build it up in areas. I still have a few gallons of it at my dad's bodyshop I've been looking for a use for. He uses RM two stage now.

I love when guys who THINK they know bodywork say that painting the vehicle is the easiest part of the job. They have obviously never laid a gallon and a half of paint down crossing their fingers not to have a run/crows foot/fish eye etcwith $1000 of product at stake. It's the last stage of the job and the first people lay eyes on.

Re-assembly becomes a tactical effort now. It's my least favorite (but also my favorite???) part of the resto process. I sometimes get ahead of myself which can have dire consequences in the paint chipping department.

Funny you say that because I did a search on here about 1 month ago and found your pics, I copied your pic then took to the paint store with me. What size lift do you have sl bl? And tire size? Thanks Rick
