1968 Corvette Diesel, finally got painted!
Well, it took a lot of hard work, and a lot of patience, which I'm almost out of. :hehe: But the car is painted! I want to thank David Abell, Nick, my wife, my mother and father, and my old boss Russ Rist of Accurate collision in Colfax, Ia, for helping get this thing squirted in the last 3 weeks. Here are some pics.

Cool color! It looks like you will be having a covette summer. That thing looks tough with all that rubber under it.

Re: 1968 Corvette Diesel, finally got painted!
Thanks guys! Now that I actually got it painted, I'm thinking of doing my 95 ford crew cab the same color. I really like it. Plus, I bet there aren't a whole lot of OBS fords that color. But, I already edged the fenders and hood in charcoal gray. So it'll stay charcoal gray. :lol:

Wow, I guess I haven't updated this thread in for ever and PB killed the entire thing. Here are some random pics I found of it the other day. I'll try to put them in order.

The stack was added when I put the first set of compound turbos on it. In the spring of 2010 it got painted. The last pic is from September 2010 at the NHRDA World Finals.
