Labor Not sure if you can afford the labor...cause I couldn`t afford to pay someone for this kinda labor.The hours I got into this car is insane,from mods,prep work an paint.My goal is to have it done by June.I still need paint,exhaust,tires an dyno tuned.Currently polishing my factory wheels an tomorrow I will block the passenger door an jam it.I installed the Rodney Dickman`s headlight motor rebuild kit,friend is coming up Saturday to finish up some wiring I needed done.I bought the passenger an driver door high voltage kits an replaced both door motors.I have the sequential tail lights installed,so hopefully in next few weeks ready for dyno.Gonna do the dyno tune before paint an exhaust,was told no big deal on the exhaust don`t need one for the tune.Currently using my 70 z/28 factory wheels...looks goofy lmao but I guess I need tires for the dyno tune lol.
Ok, maybe another silly question, LOL. Why red on the hatch sills but white on the door? Is the white you sprayed your primer? Just thought it odd 2 different colors were used.

Cost Oh I got a 70 z/28 next.The friggen cost for the paint was $598.00 for a gallon.The cost of the materials for a paint job is so expensive,especially when you get in candy colors.I wonder what it would cost me to have someone else paint the jams? Someone guess...

As of right now the engine bay will stay black,I just don`t wanna get side tracked an burn time in the engine compartment.As for painting goes,both bumpers,both side skirts will be painted red.The rear spoiler is gonna be red on the bottom an metallic black on top,the piece behind t-tops will also be painted black.All of those parts will be painted off the car,my brother does more body work then me an told me off the car...not sure why but thats what he recommends.Also the rear bumper has that low insert that the exhaust tips come out the bottom,that will be filled black also.Today I will try to get the door hinges,handles an key lock primed today.
