Resurrelica

A couple of weeks ago, I decided to let me veritable pot’o’water sit on the stove a bit longer before I watched it again.  Well, today I went by to check on things and low and behold…

Huzzah!  It’s painted–clearcoat and all. 3 color coats plus 1 extra color coat on hood and roof.

Painted 1

Painted 2

As you can see it’s shiny shiny. When I arrived he was sanding out some runs in the clear coat.  There’s a little bit of orange peel here and there, but it should polish/buff out (so I’m told).  And the side-skirts aren’t hugging the body in all the best ways despite being clipped, glued and screwed.  So, we’re going to get creative in making them conform to their new master.  But overall, it’s definitely already an improvement over its former state.

Painted 3 (some orange peel on roof)

I’m planning to take all the removed parts by either on Friday or early next week and assist in reassembling everything.  I took everything off and want to ensure that all the screws go back in all the right places 🙂
