Haven't started any painting yet, still removing the old paint.

 

Awesome. What's the details on it, anymore "before" pics?

 

I have owned the car for about 17 years, and it is a real number matching original 427 4 speed with about 53,000 miles.

 

you using clays leftover cleatus paint?

 

Nope, this is Monaco orange aka Chevrolet hugger orange.

 

Well, hello there, Fairlane.

 

Greetings!

 

Hells yes! :thumbup:

 

Looks awesome. While the access is there, might I suggest removing the mufflers for a better exhaust note? :gabe:

 

Not at this time, they are OEM.

I haven't seen it in person, But the paint looked great In the first pic...? Was there some issues there that you wanted u to repaint it.?

 

Paul,

 

The paint was old and had some checking/etc, it was a 5 footer. There were some areas that needed to be repaired. I have planned for years to do it and now pulled the trigger.

Find any unforeseen rust spots whilst taking this monster apart? :yuno:

 

Nope, overall, it was in pretty good shape. Years ago, I did repair the upper corners of the windshield frame.
