  • Thanks a lot guys. Means a lot!

    Just so people know, It was wet sanded with 1500, then Wet sanded with 2000.

    I was thinking about 3000, but I think that would just be an over kill.

            • Thanks guys! I cant wait to get it wheeled out and take it outside in the sun to see what it looks like.

                  • Thanks guys!

                    last night I put the weather stripping on around the rear deck and around the doors.

                    I painted my front turn signals and the housings that go around the front head lights.

                    I hope I can do more things tonight.
                    Too busy yesterday to have it wheeled out. So maybe today.
                    Yesterday had to double check a few spots that needed to be wet sanded down a little farther. Damn dirt and fuzz that sticks to the clear!

                    Good thing the was 4 good coats of clear on there!

                    • Well yesterday I put the side marker lights back in.
                      (DAMN, I hate the front side marker lights!)

                      We did paint them black (tint), so they look really good.
                      The rear tail lights are also tinted, but I did not like how the center piece turned out, so that will get redone.

                      I tried to put the mirrors on....but the damn paint it still too soft!
                      So it's being moved outside to bake in the sun with this EXECLENT weather we are having!

                      My center t top bar was painted.

                      Biggest things that need to be done:
                      Rear Spoiler needs to be mounted
                      Windshield needs to be pulled out and the molding put back on. (we pulled it off to paint the car) Then put back in.
                      Interior needs to be all wiped down and put back in.
                      T top weather stripping needs to be installed
                      Door poppers need to be finished.
                      Needs to be buffed out, cleaned, polished, waxed, kissed hugged and driven!
