Love the color.  How many BCs and CCs are you doing?

Sorry, base coats and clear coats.  Just curious if you are doing a multi-stage paint job, and is so how many coats of color and clear are going on.

Looks fantastic!

I'm hoping I'll be joining you  in a couple week with my 64.5 not too far from receiving color.

Well done and enjoy assembling!

Color me jealous.  I'm hoping to put some fresh paint on mine in early spring, but I won't be doing a full disassemble.

Did you paint it at home? Is there a thread about your set up?

You need to take notes and pay special attention when painting a car in pieces, especially metallic colors. Also, the texture (orange peel) of the paint can vary panel to panel.

Well yes it was painted at home. But my neighbor and I moved and restored an old cross draft booth that is in its own part of the shop. ( he once owned a body shop)
