Thread: Who wants to follow along w/ my flame job?

Tweet

Last update before Friday's show. I have an out of town job tomorrow. Car is filthy as it's just been colorsanded & buffed. All old pinstriping on car is now gone. Windshield is back on car & it runs. Found out panhard bar in front is bent today. :crazy: Nothing like more drama. Theirs will have to be modified to fit the TCI mounts. Car will be detailed tomorrow top & bottom. This is the 1st time I've had a car professionally detailed. Can't wait to see the engine. It was pretty nice but I hadn't had time to really get in there before.




Grille shell- less pinstriping. That will be done tomorrow. Moon tank is installed.





We have flames!!! No pin stripe yet. Cheapo work camera doesn't do colors right though- but this one is closest.




Hood side. This one is all striped & looking great!




Hood top, all striped.




Close up of louvered hood side all color sanded & buffed. Striping isn't done yet.




Open & say AHHHHHHHHHH
Color is not right though. Should have moved the floor jack.




Another view of hood side.




Tools of the trade.




Side view. Doesn't really show the dark shadows w/ flash on & colors are wrong.

I got him to sign my book. Pretty humble guy!

I almost hate to see this thread come to an end. The book signature is icing on the cake, seems like a great guy to work with!
