One can always dream.

Hey Dave it has been many years since I have painted anything. How much paint and clear is it going to take you to finish that 36?

What did you use for a gas tank for it?

On the paint, depends on how carried away you get....If you're like me, and do the inside of the car, bottom of the car, frame, engine, and all the small parts--should plan on 2 gals. sprayable. As for the clear, I've already gone through a gallon, think another one will do it--the clear I'm using is a 4:1 mix ratio and the paint is 1:1.

The fuel tank is a 15 gal RCI unit (part #2161A) that goes in the back with a firewall separating it from the passenger compartment and an external vent... Got this one from Summit for like $210 or so with the sending unit in it.... I'll get a picture of the setup for you one of these first days....
