zguy95135 Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 Painted "Viper Blue". My dad bought the car in September and did all the bodywork himself, it was pretty dented up, lots of little dings and the front of the hood was bent in a little. Now the all new weather stripping and parts are going back on. Looks pretty good I think. Especially since it was painted at Earl Schieb . The place we took it to does a really good job, especially if they like the car. Not bad for a $450 paintjob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EMWHYR0HEN Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 hey that looks great! Is there metalic flake in the paint? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zguy95135 Posted January 10, 2007 Author Share Posted January 10, 2007 Yep, its metallic. I didnt even notice until we got the car home. Its laid out really smoothly too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RB26powered74zcar Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 I was going to ask why the crome trim with rubber sqeegy on the doors got painted, but then I read the Earl Schieb part.... Looks good though.... j Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the trim except around the windows was taken off, and the old weatherstripping was cut back so what when the new stuff goes on it'll overlap the paint and look cleaner.

kuntry Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 looks really good. was that 450 with the paint, or did you supply it yourself? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RB26powered74zcar Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 It really does look nice.... oh, andyea, I'm the idiot for thinking the trim was still on the doors. Thats what happens when you turn a half a century old, and start loosing your sight.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
240zV8 Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 looks great. I can still see the holes for the side trim on the doors and fenders..are u puting that trim back on? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zguy95135 Posted January 11, 2007 Author Share Posted January 11, 2007 It was approx $450 out the door. Yea theres the little holes for the door trim, but its going to be replaced with a new set Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
