Durabak. Avocado green.

Three coats total.

One less white 80 :D
Green DuraBak!

Nice!

I like it.

Is it the 'smooth' variety or 'rough'?
 
did you do the jams ? or is that the sour cream ? :hillbilly:

it does look nice though.

The jams are the sour cream right now :D. I am going to paint them black (up to the weather stripping on the doors). I was going to bring the Durabak inside, but at some point that's a complete PITA for no benefit.

Door handles I painted black before doing the Durabak, it's the "rough" texture with the rubber granules, and I figured I'd be scraping my knuckles every time I got in if I Durabak'd 'em :hillbilly:
 
That looks so wrong I'd swear it was a photochop. Especially pic 3.

Try this one :hillbilly:

My paint was completely shot, totally oxidized and pinpoint rusting. It only looks good here because I spent 3 hours sanding it down.

The guys who keep adding black accents to white 80's should take note of my pimpin' door handles :D

7" and 38's.

But not until I can do the rear leaf/front 3-link plan :eek:

And I always thought the phrase 'I just threw up a little in my mouth' was an embellishment. Yuck.

As long as you like it.

Sure it doesn't need another coat to darken into "avacado" ?
