This vehicle came in needing some serious help. We started with tear down and a good blasting with soda to remove paint and sand for the rust. Next was panel replacement and repair. We used a color coordinated yellow primer for paint preparation, and next was Competition Yellow base coat. A slightly darker yellow paint was used for the stripes, followed by a clear coat with gold pearl. We are currently wet sanding and buffing this vehicle.  Check back later to see pictures of this one when it's completed. It's gonna look awesome.
Update: We have completed the wet sanding and buffing, rust proof and sound deadener have been applied to the new floor, and spatter finish in the trunk. Now we are building the seats and installing bumpers and emblems etc. This one should be finished in just a few days !
