That's gonna be sharp when finished.

I like the color. nice job on the paint.

Thanks guys .I'm not all that happy with the deck lid but one day ill find me one with no rust.

Only one I have seen with no rust in the last 25 years is Aryans.

Are you hiding something with trick photography? Cause what I'm seeing looks dang good!

Good progress!

got a little work done. got my quarter just need to cut and weld it up.  wat u guys think we have a work session a block party just need some help blocking the car down. any body interested ill set up a date.....wat the combo should look like

Glad to see it coming together! You are getting really good at this stuff nephew.

Gonna be a nice looking ride!

Is that a down draft paint booth? I have always wanted to try one of those.

Yea its a downdraft blowtherm. with new filters it feels like its sucking you to the floor...

are u going with the gold color bird on the hood ?

Do as you want but if it was me I wouldn't do the gold bird. Maybe lay it out and use blue and red pearls in the clear to give it a ghost effect bird. Kind of like ghost flames. The blue for the darker part of the main body then the red pearl for the wings and feathers. Both red and blue will be purple with the base purple paint. It will just be different tones.

I know hardly anyone will understand that but you may.

reb almost excatly wat i was thinking i might be that good someday i dont think i want to try it i have almost 20 hours in the hood now .............two coats of clear....... sadly this was my last project at school and so busy at work the car is just sitting collecting junk....

Aaron I know this car knows about flames. It needs that ghost Pheonix on the hood. I think you have the skill now get the nads!

He has come a LOOOONNNNGGGGGGG WAY. I'm glad to see him working at this art.

Stinks I sold the car before I was able to get the flames pinstriped and cleared. I liked that car a lot! I'm glad to see you getting it back together.

I want to paint Bertha that shade of purple but leave the clear off.

If you change your mind I'll help you lay it out. We can use Aryan's hood for a mock up to get the style you want before doing the real deal on yours.
