And the paint work begins (1 Viewer)

I had been thinking about getting the lc wrapped as opposed to getting it painted, but since the wraps have minimum life of about 5 years, I thought against it.

It looks like just the hood needed some touch ups. Looks pretty clean from what i see, was half expecting to see some collision damage or catastrophic by the thread title.

Cherish your chrome mirrors and door handles! Not easy to find for replacement!

Barn doors! Awesome.

I keep saying this is the year for paint.......

Looking forward to how yours turns out.

I keep thinking I should clean mine up and piant it, then we go get some pinstripes on it in the brush, and I quickly change my mind. Maybe monstaliner though.

That looks really clean and I like the barn doors.!

The roof and bonnet were the worst but the rest of the body was 85% clean. I thought of getting the whole care done as there were many visible scratches etc

Ah yes the pinstripes thought kept me from painting, and one day my 5 year old daughter found a nail and decided to add the pin stripes

I am wondering whether to change the colour tone or leave it the same

metallic blue
