I live in Minnesota
Where at in MN? Close to the twin cities? What type of body work do you do at your shop? Do you do paint repairs like fixing overspray?

Thanks Dane. Can't wait to see some more progress. Which state is your shop in? I'd love to meet a reputable paint guy.

Just finished painting my brakes. Opted to take apart.....clean....metal etch and paint. As I was painting I decided to go for a "satin" look on the red....thought bright glossy red would be too much. So added a little flattener in the clear to knock the shine off a bit (it's not flat....but not glossy)

Personally don't like the two tone color scheme...but I respect the time you're putting in.

Just got back from vacation and waiting for me were the eibach sportline lowering springs and my 3DC 1/4 window scoops. So I installed the springs this morning (no problem at all with the rear panhard bar moving over) But will align the frontend tomorrow....nobody is open today. And will paint the scoops soon. I was also informed by Boyd Coddington Wheels that the hoops are back ordered...so expect an August 7th. delivery for them to me. I was at the Goodguys car show this weekend in Iowa and talked to the guys at the Boyd booth......they gave me the number for Chris Coddington and said....call and see what he can do for ya (see if he can get them here sooner) they knew I was MAD! (the lowering springs were 2".....looks great....but still needs the wheels)
