The latest toy :)\"NEW PICS 22/08/05\"

DubCrazy · 2005-01-06T12:53:57+00:00

got this a few months ago now and have only just managed to pull it into the workshop for some much needed paint work. theres is little to no rust anywhere but some nice soul has painted it in god knows what so its cracking,peeling,flaking and doing just about everything it can to remove its self from the car. It had sat in a barn for 4 years+ had chickens and rats living it it(the whole tunnel was a big rats nest) but with not much effort it started and now runs pretty good, so its in the work shop now and its getting some love treatment,pic will soon follow of the paint, and interior plans... steff.......................

it is now pyro but the pics were taken at work in the booth 🙂 i would love a booth at home too and one day i will ... have to wait till i move back out onto the block for that sort of thing tho.... one of the perks of the job being a spraypainter by trade i get to use the workshop at weekends and holidays .. only costs the price of materials so i am laughing all the way to the next project!!... am i rubbing it in enuf yet??? lol

hey all i just thought, i would like abit of imput on the colour of the wheels... i am painting all the cage, bars and drums a gunmetal grey. I can't make my mind up on the colour of the wheels... redo them white or do them in the colours of the car either the yellow or the burgandy... what do you all think?????????????????? maybe a totaly different colour???? i know all off the colours i am looking at will work and look nice but i just can't make my mind up!!!

lol this is coming from someone who changed the paint job a total of 12 times including right up to masking up for one patten on the back then changing it at the last second..!!!!!!
