Very nice!!!
-
sweet! thats lots of intercooler! I would drive it around with the grill off all the time!
-
That is nice!
-
Looks really good, can't wait to see the final paint job.
One question, did you sand down the original paint to create a primer look, or or did you sand down to metal and then apply the primer coat?
Trying to see which way is cheaper and still keeping some good results, as I too will be needing a paint job. Thanks

Loookin good! You need to get rid of that small heat exchanger and get a nice big intercooler!

I pick the car up Friday. The gentleman that did it is a friend of mine...a fellow TR owner...and owns his own bodyshop. My car was stolen...so this went through insurance.

That's Marks Megacooler from TR Customs. Fit like a glove...and the ET stays dead consistent on back to back runs. I got tired of heat soak with the SLIC. I got it brand new from a guy in Alberta...for 600 bucks shipped to my door. :rock:
I raced Dan Keller at Armdrop this year...and he has my identical build...with the exception of a SLIC. I got him by a length or two in the first race. We hot lapped...and I put a half dozen on him. I'm a firm believer in real world results.

Wow...gonna be beautiful!
Fuk! It's beautiful now!

For a guy who once told me a MACCO paint job was good enough you surely went to the other extreme....

We'll hook up in Napierville in the spring. :rock: How loud is that 10,000 HP fuel pump you got? :)

A little louder than the other

Did they do a base and clear coat or did he shoot enamel?

Chris is gonna join up here in the next day or two...and he'll answer all your questions. :)

Looks good.

I sent a pic of the finished car to Jason to his cell. Maybe he can post it. I'll take pics of it in the bodyshop tomorrow morning...and post in late afternoon.

Per Brad's request

Looks Great!

Thanks for posting Jason. :)

Pretty shiny. Now you are gonna be afraid to take it out and play with it.

Loading it onto the trailer this morning is gonna scare me. :)

Very nice. I haven't seen a car that doesn't look good with a set of street lites!

Looking very sharp.

Big round of applause for Mike...the young lad that prepped and shot my car. :rock:

Man that looks good! Hats off to Mike!

He might have a future in the business!
Wow it looks great what type of urethane? My last go was Nason's

Did he cut and buff as well?

I talked to Chris about so many things that I can't remember half the stuff he told me. :) I believe he said it was done from the lower body line on up. There's not a hint of orange peel. :)

Looks good Brad........ probably worth a tenth, just a slid'n through the air. BC/CC?

Jim...slide over to the I Made It Over! thread. Chris explains the paint procedure.

:023: was looking at that thread and missed his post

Looks good! Hopefully the new paint job reduces your coefficient of friction! :D
