So... from a bodywork perspective, these old cars have lots of steel..... acres and acres of it. At least that's what it seems like. Today was the fine tune day. The orange is a corrosion resistant tintable epoxy primer, its fairly high build, if everything goes to plan I should be able to omit the standard high build polyester stuff. The American Motors stock color for this car is mustard yellow (quasi orange)
The primer will allow the paint to cover nicely. Next on the agenda is panel fitting, I'm seriously not looking forward to this.
The paint will be delfleet 2 stage I'll be shooting a few layers of clear after the first coat cut with the base to increase the illusion of depth I may even add just a pinch or three of gold pearl...
Fingers crossed...
