Default Project White Trash Update

Well we got the car pretty much stripped, we started sanding it so we can finish up the bodywork next week and hopefully get it looking mostly the same color. Props to Craig (firebladews6) for helping me get this project going. You can see the **** in action in one of the pix.

Damn, that puppy has plenty of high and low spots!

Your rebel flag is upside down, the center star is facing down. I mean if the car is called white trash you should atleast get that right.

Why flat? Put a lil' shine on the paint. Fart black?

Why not at least semi-gloss? Because if you put flat and you wax it....it'll still look like 30 year old beat to hell paint that's been sitting in the field-and that's AFTER you wax it!!!

Don't pay attention to me. I like shiny things.

p.s.- If I pay you $50, will you spray gloss black instead?... I'll give you another $50 if you put some clearcoat on after.
