She's Red

Wheels on... It's coming together...

Re-Assembly - Back End

New bumpers, taillight lenses, bezels, emblems...

Re-Assembly - Front End

New Grilles, Front Bumper...

Wheels

I stripped and repainted the original wheels in the correct Argent Silver. I also repainted the black on the caps and polished the trim rings.

Basecoat

We decided on GM Torch Red. Although this car was originally Monza Red, we decided to go with the more vibrant Torch Red.


Body Con't.

More body. We really worked on getting everything lined up and smooth.



Bodywork & Primer

3 coats of Featherfill and lots of sanding. This thing is slick. Lots of work on the hood, we had to really work on the back edges where it meets the fenders. Lots of cutting/wedging/re-glassing. It now fits perfect. Notice the gaps.



It's been a while...

I've really done a bad job of keeping current... Things are coming along great.
