Time frame on shooting the paint?

Hoping to at least get it done before year end. I've just had ton of work and hours lately. Doesn't seem to be letting up but if I can carve out a good week. Paint will pour!

Engine Bay is finally getting there. Got more primer on yesterday and some detail work done.

Got the radiator support laser straight by blocking it down.

Thanks Troy! I appreciate everyone's patience who has followed this. I am hopeful that when the paint goes on, it will make it worth it.

The paint will look better then the day it rolled out of Dearborn

Well another 8 hours in the engine bay. I am finally satisfied with it. I got all the little details finished. It is taped up and I am going to primer it one more time, then I will start sanding and prepping it for PAINT. Hard to believe I have 182 hours and sprayed and sanded 9 coats of primer.

Just totally unbelievable.. You sir have mad skills. The attention to detail is just jaw dropping. I don't think I have ever been so impressed.

Thanks... I am happy to report that with a couple more coats of primer, the engine bay is done and ready to be prepped for paint. Notice the smoothed blocked transmission tunnel. First time its not been covered in tape and paper in a long time. So glad to have that part out of the way.

Here is the before shot

 

[95steedamustang]

Still working on the passenger's door. Its about to get taken to the scrap pile.

Finally coming along though.

Also got my fuel tank cover and stainless straps. I am thinking about powdercoating them Black and doing some custom paintwork on this.

 

[N8Dogg98]

Looks good! Are you keeping the tank cover gloss black?

Thanks and yeah...I will be keeping black as my base and most likely do some graphics on top. Then put several coats of clear on top.
