    Painting the car

    Started prepping the car for paint, and thought I would post some pics in process.

        Very nice! I'd love to repaint my '94 - the red they used 94-96 just sucks, too pinkish in pictures. I've always envied the 98+ red they used on Trans Ams. Victory Red should look great too!

            Interesting, had no idea they changed the color. Guess we'll have to park next to each other sometime.

              I would remove the antenna mast and base so you won't get a paint edge there and a place for the paint to start chipping.

                  You will need a special tool just for a heads up if you didn't know looks good so far

                  Can you argue that it's "revolutionary"? Perhaps. Just because it's "new" and "different" doesn't mean it's the greatest thing since sliced bread.

                          Here is the latest update, it's getting there finally. I need to either paint the rims black or replace them. The chrome is peeling on them now. It's funny how you fix one thing and find something else wrong!
