The last post catches us up to date on where I have the car. I did most of this work from Dec. 1 to Feb. 28th working FT on it. Now Im heavily into a couple of customer builds so progress will slow but planning some good stuff over the summer.

Aaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhh! You’re killing me Kevin! I want to see it painted.

Whatever happened to that purple car anyhow?
 
Is there an acceptable window of time that it can stay in primer before base coat ?
nope. Doesn’t matter. But the more time you give the materials such as primer to shrink and draw back before paint the better because if it does yuh can address before paint. So many times a new paint job will look good and then 6 months later it doesn’t and sand scratches come back and filler shrink. This is why I wait to paint after so much work.
