Its Martian Senior the top of the line stuff don't know the #s off hand but its called Switch Blade Silver. Its a C6 Vett color. Got the main body polished so we could unwrap the underside. Sorry the pics aren't to good they were taken with my phone.

Thanks guys, its been a lot of work. as for the shop it is the owner of the cars shop and we were there till 1:00 Friday night getting it set up like that for painting. But that is pretty much how he keeps it and everything else he has and that should explain a lot about why the Malibu had to be...

After about 100hrs of detail sanding and moving it all back to the owners shop it is finally painted! Today I will wet sand the clear and put 2 maybe 3 more coats and then done. Wish you guys could see the color in the sun it really is something.

I used to think I was a pretty good body man but after watching your work I am beginning to wonder about that:confused:. I am perplexed as to how one guy takes a pile of cut up body parts and stitch's them back together and makes it all look so natural without any body work at all I mean it...

Body is done except for final blocking with 600. Took it back apart and painted the inside of the body and trunk. Ya can't see it in the pics but man this silver really sparkles!

WOW! Did that roadster get scrapped? why should it be a sad end? Looks like perfect street rod makings to me. I would love to come across something like that or a coupe!

I swear you have got to have some little Evils that help you when you are sleeping!:rolleyes: Very nice, very very nice. I still can't get over that dash[dr

That dash looks so good! I chopped my 52 almost 2 years ago and I still don't have the garnish moldings cut yet.!:rolleyes: Man you are fast!

Thanks guys, It did come out nice for a resto.:rolleyes: Now if someone would bring me one to chop up a bit I could have some real fun[;)

Finally got the tail gate back from the striper and we took it out for its first public showing tonight at a local cruze night. Amazing how many people didn't know Plymouth made trucks. Now I need to get the striper to do the cab![S

Great pics! thanks for taking the time to bring us all with ya.[cl

Hung the front sheet metal today, figured I better get it a little closer to being done before I start finishing the body.:rolleyes:

The main body is very close to paint time and I got the core support ready(had to fill about 20 unused factory holes) along with one fender. Need to get the last fender done then start the endless hours of really stupid detail/detail/detail sanding:eek:

Great pics Sam, thanks so much.

That's a real possibility:rolleyes:. But I do hope not:(

Last night we got the body back on the chassis for the last time. Now I can get the doors/fenders/hood and deck lid on and finish the body. The whole rolling chassis is sealed in shrink wrap and the underside of the body is covered in plastic so I don't F' up the work that has already been done:eek:

Perfect![cl nothing more I can say, just Perfect!

Got the color on the bottom. It is called Switch Blade Silver Metallic and it kinda changes color depending on how you look at it. Way over kill for the underside but that's what he wants.:rolleyes:

The owner couldn't be happier. As I said at the start of this the truck belonged to his wifes father and her earliest memories are from about 7 yrs old and she is 61 now. He has had this restoration in the back of his mind from when he was 16 and started dateing his wife. She would not even look...

Got it out and drove it around a bit. Very happy with how it all turned out. The difference between drive'n it before and now is huge! So tight and quiet really was worth the effort to use the peel n stick on the floors and in the doors. All n all it turned out good for a resto......Still...
