Car has been painted using a mix of flat black and gloss red Rustoleum to give it a DEEP burgundy color I call DRIED BLOOD RED (you know...when you cut yourself and wipe off that fresh blood on a paper towl..come back a little while later when it dried...that's the color!)


Total spayed on (siphon feed gun) cost for 1 qt gloss red, 1 qt flat black, acetone and enamal hardener...$34.00!

Finish is a semi gloss. looks like a car that was painted in the 1960's and just came out of storage (dull luster finish--the look I was after!)

Minimal body work done...few dings, creases...ect left in the body purposley for that "aged" look. All rust was removed..just to prolong the life of the body.

Here are a few pics...The car is about 85% complete now....should be complete by the end of the year ( should be done sooner...but the money doesn't come in that quick!)

Sweet ride, man.

Just for some color contrast, this is our club president's car.

Another different color.
