It's got a long ways to go.

 

Umm wow! now thats a COMPLETE pait job. I have always wanted to tear my car apart for a perfect paint job like that but im scared that i wont be able to have it put back together properly in all the right places again.

 

^

its really nice, but the reassembly would be the place where i would feel stupid

 

looks nuts - what do you plan on using it for?

 

Whatever this engine will let me do.

 

how much time did it take to get it down that far? and well, how much did the paint cost?

 

It's hard to say because it's my car and I'm the shop owner. It was done on spare time between customer's cars.

 

Thats some great work, i wish i lived in Atl. I would definately beg you to hook me up

 

What turbo is that?? Thing is huge!~

 

GT42R

here's a little comparison shot.

 

Damn Carly, where u dig up that pic?

 

wow... that this IS huge!!! Which one is the GT42R? big or small?

 

my broke-*** camera, haha!!

paint looks awesome! I'm starting to gather parts up...if you know what I mean

 

pic me oh, pic me............. its the big one

 

beautiful setup.. good luck

 

I'm not criticising or trying to be negative in any way, but I'm really curious why you've not gone for a flake or pearl type paint - you obviously have the capability and the means... I'm guessing you must have some technical reason? Always interesting to hear the thoughts of a Pro

Amazing job, I sure it will look absolutely incredible when it's all back together...

Good luck with your project and I'd love to see more pictures as you progress.

 

No technical reasons here. The color makes me 'happy'.

 

Undoubtedly the best reason of all

 

well i guess the better question.. how would that run?

 

Could you tell me a little more about that intake manifold, looks foreign. Maybe a spec sheet, history?

 

I second that. Im very interested

 

Looks like a jay-tech manifold

 

All the panels were seam welded.

 

wow, that looks awesome - reminds me of the vacuum formed car shells i used to make back at school!

How did you smooth it like that? Filler or weld and grind?

 

All welded p, grinded, welded again, grind, and a little filler.
