Glad he took care of you! I've heard he's a good dude!

On another front... Aircraft stripper SUCKS!

YUCK

Took a full gallon to get all that done. Called it a day. I'll get the rest after I get a couple more gallons.

Got the new fenders.

Progressing nicely...

Just sent... don't want to offend anyone.

Iroc, what are you plans for the car? What color are you painting it??????? ETC.

Also, Adamz and I went to Edgewood this past friday and had a ball. Anyone from cincy area going anytime soon? It was a hell of a way to spend a Friday night having fun going fast!

Well... there is a lot if history with this car. To keep it short, my dad got it new and it was the car that got me really into cars. Anyhow, he sold it in 1991 and I got it back in 2008. It has been going through a 4 year "rstoration". When I got it back it was in pretty good shape. Needed a good cleaning and a tune up. I redid the wheels and cleaned up the interior real good about 3 years ago and then since buying the 5th gen, it sat. Well now that I sold the 5th gen, I am finishing the project.

It will be the same color. Bright Blue Metallic. It seems to be the "one to have". Everyone who sees it seems to want one.

Its getting painted and a few under the hood updates, nothing major. I hope to have it done by the middle of July but...

I remember years ago when I did my car and helped my brother do many others, timing is everything. Leave it on too long and it starts drying back on to the metal, too early and it comes off in little pieces.

Have fun

Timing is key. 3-4 minutes max but too soon does nothing. You can tell when it's ready.

Are you doing a show car finish? 5 to 7 coats of clear or what?????

IROCanSS · 06-17-2012, 05:59 PM

Probably 3-4 coats of color and 3-4 of clear. Not show car but it should be better than factory which won't be tough. Lol

IROCanSS · 06-17-2012, 06:01 PM

LOL @ some of the tags. I feel honored you are all so worried about me and what I drive. And whomever brainchilded the whosellstheircamarotogetajeep has obviously never had a jeep. Not disrespecting the Camaro but there are other vehicles out there. And for what it's worth, IF I got another muscle car it would be a 13 GT500.

Now you gone and did it!

Turning this thread into hundreds of pages of factless & emotion-laden posts. That's stirring the pot with the Binford 5000 blender.
