Todds 87 Trans Am progress thread

Yeah yeah yeah LOL!! I can guess snowmobiling might be over.
But as you all know...were going to get hit one more time LOL!!

My car should be coming back into the shop in a couple weeks I'm guessing.

1/2 of the car is done and in primer.
the passenger side needs to be done the same as the drivers side.
Sanded all down to bare metal and all redone, (the right way).

At least we don't need to re do most of the jams. There are a couple spots that need to be redone.

Also were going to add color down below and then actually put the ground effects back on the car.
That way everything will match.

So I'm keeping my fingers crossed. I know when it gets back in the shop...LOL...I'll get the butterflies back in my stomach!

shhhhhh! I moved the car back in the garage last night.
Were going to start working on it again!! Whoooot!!!!

[s.reef]

Sweet, hurry up now

[tenpin842]

Well some progress pics.

















So tomorrow the passenger side will be primered/sealed
I'm pretty pissed off at the last body guy.
I'm not going to lie....just sanding down the passenger side. I bet we could have filled up a 5 gallon bucket with all the bondo dust that was sanded off.
AND YOU CAN SEE BY THE PICS....IT DOESN'T NEED IT!

So I'm glad it is being done right this time around.

More pics when we get more stuff done.

Looking good, should of took off your tt though. I'll probably be over there on Friday so I'll sneak a peak.

[MP81]

He used THAT MUCH Bondo?!?!?!?!

[meissen]

Bwahahaha it's too bad you couldn't do like a clear putty and clearcoat - it kinda looks cool all shiny metal.

[tenpin842]

LOL...I thought the same thing.
But wait till you see it at the meet and greet. Candy apple red is a pretty sweet color!

[SoulTerror]

If it'll be done this year
