Ya I painted the jams, didnt care bout the engine bay cuz thats gonna be sprayed shortly... Let me tell u this is just my project not a show car so i fixd most of the dings and pits in the fiberglass, but some i just left alone.

Still gotta pull the hatch glass and spray that part....mask blah blah blah...
This is my the first time i used the all mighty hvlp spray guns , yaya.....so my next ghetto fab project is gonnna be . . . . . . The straight up gangsta style vert wooooot!
but what color hmmmmmmmmmmm............

Well i did get out of rotary scene, bought a 97 civ drove it, hated it ,had good gas milage thats it.

My buddy was making payments for my 7 , stopd making payments, i repod the 7 back, drove it just once and decided i was gonna wait to see how she turns out once i get her paintd , if i likey , im keeping, if not i sell the 7.

So i might sell her, not sure ya know, we have been thru the thick and thin.

Timmy she has no clear coat yet wait till she gets 2 stages or so of the clear . will be sickness ..........straight money son ,
