After a WHOLE lot of work, Dan Brown is almost done painting a spectacular ’68 SS Camaro for us! (2) new fenders, (2) new quarter panels and a new rear panel later, this healthy ’68 is in the spray booth getting the final coats.
After extensive bodywork, the car was jambed with the fenders, doors, trunk lid & hood off of the car. Then the panels themselves were all hit with a few coats of red base. After refitting all of the panels, checking & adjusting all the gaps, and inspecting all of the body lines, the car is block sanded one more time, and sent into the booth for final paint! 1 or 2 pics show the car with red stripes- this is actually just the red base showing through the masking pattern, the stripes are actually white. Once the white stripes are based in, they get wet-sanded and the whole car gets multiple coats of clearcoat to seal in both colors……
Stay tuned for some flashier photos of the paint job!
