5speedz34 Posted February 23, 2008 Report Share Posted February 23, 2008 I'm not trying to be a dick, and I don't know everything about paint jobs, but how come in those 2 pictures there is orange peel? Does it need to be wet sanded, or was it not finished yet (in those pics)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ManicMechanic Posted February 23, 2008 Report Share Posted February 23, 2008 Does it need to be wet sanded, or was it not finished yet (in those pics)? Definitely, it just came out of the paint booth, the paint has to cure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hotrodolds Posted February 23, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 23, 2008 We aren't planning on wet sanding or buffing this thing at all. It's gonna sit all weekend, and then Monday or Tuesday night, I'll put the parts back on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J Posted February 23, 2008 Report Share Posted February 23, 2008 it'll still look much better than stock Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hotrodolds Posted February 23, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 23, 2008 Oh, yeah. The original paint was just bad. Real bad. It COULD have been fixed, but this was quicker AND cheaper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hotrodolds Posted February 23, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 23, 2008 I prefer the four door body of most anything. Just this particular car, I prefer the coupe nose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
intern8tion9l Posted February 24, 2008 Report Share Posted February 24, 2008 lookin good, love the conversion. i would have like to see you attempt the coupe rear too, but that would have been a lot loose the hitch x2342354354 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GnatGoSplat Posted February 26, 2008 Report Share Posted February 26, 2008 I can tell the fenders still don't line up quite right, but how much work did it take to get it to line up as well as it does? Also, how come you didn't paint it with the cladding off of it? Is it better not to take them off? (Holy crap, DOHCRagtopguy, who's that in your latest avatar?!?! ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
