damn nice work but your version or budget must mean no WIFE, no kids, no other kind of drain on your bank account other than what you need to skimp by on..otherwise i have no idea how the hell you are affording all of this...but I LOVE YOUR CAR...i dont normally dig on red cars but that is pretty damn nice so far and only appears to get better..
now just curious what did you BUY the car for initiallY?

applied second coat of red about an hour ago, everything else from this point on will be current. planning on giving her a 3rd coat in a few days just to be safe / finish the can lol. followed by some clear coat
the most exciting part is right around the corner, going to start putting her back together hopefully within a week or so. just have to get a few more items. with that being said i leave you with a video i took right before she went under construction. some of you might have seen it already but whatev theres other great videos on my friends youtube page aswell. hope everyones liking the thread

Did you clay bar the car or anything? The original pic it's dirty but the paint looks to have tons of fine scratches but the newer pics don't look this way.
