looks good! you and I are doing the same thing right now, but you're ahead of me! did you use epoxy primer? also, check out the links for the large version of the primer pics (they don't work).

If it comes out as well as the Ghia, I predict sweetness!

Randy & Derek,

I'm impressed. I've only started the tear-down of my Signal Orange 2.0L, so I'm not ready for all the bodywork stuff, but I'd sure like to converse with someone who's been-there-done-that.

I keep getting side-tracked with the daily-driver. Gotta pull the engine again - rings have moved and its blowing past them.

I'd also like to hear about your portable paint booth. Did you use this to do the primer? I've thought about how I could quarantine part of my garage for this purpose, but haven't developed any plans yet. Plus I need to hide what I'm doing from the neighbors - sh#%@t - they're likely to have me arrested for exposing the neighborhood to dangerous chemicals!!!

Enjoy!

gerard,

spend some time reading the forums at http://www.autobodystore.com/cgi-bin/config.pl?index

you will find out so much information fast! it is a very active forum with tons of info daily. the owner (Len) will even answer your questions. he has a spray painting 101 instructional video he made, which is very good! he is working on part 2 now, which will be on bodywork I believe.
